For those of you who have not yet heard, Rick has been hired as the Executive Director of the Dr. Ashbel Woodward Museum in Franklin, CT.
The museum is owned by the Town of Franklin and is a beautifully restored Greek Revival house built in the 1830s.  Dr. Woodward was the town physician for much of the mid and late 19th century.  He was an antiquarian, historian and writer of note as well as having served in the post of President of the Connecticut Medical Association.  The museum is just getting off the ground and it will be Rick's job to take it to the next step.  Look for information about the comings and goings of the Woodward Museum right here on the Catfeather website.  Like his position with CT Landmarks' Hempsted Houses in New London, this is a part time position, so Rick will continue to be the site administrator there as well.

Music Matters:
Thanks to those who have given such positive input on the new recording "Waiting for Me."  The reviews have been very gratifying and so far the sales have been pretty brisk.  Those of you who have not visited can hear selections from the recording and are now able to download all the cuts for a small fee at www.myspace.com/catfeather.
Liner notes and lyrics for the new recording have been posted here on The Music Room page.

Rick has recently added several music students, bringing the number up to ten.  At this point his lessons schedule is pretty full, but he still welcomes inquiries about lessons on guitar, banjo, mandolin, concertina and Appalachian dulcimer. 


Upcoming Gigs:

Friday, 21 November
    7pm to 10pm
Tamarack Lodge
21 Ten Rod Road
Voluntown, CT

The Tamarack reminds us of an old New England ski lodge.  Rustic and very comfortable.  Great food and an excellent place to come out for some music.  Rick will be sharing this evening with Rich and Dee Kelly.  If you prefer Sunday Brunch to Friday evening come out on:

Sunday, 28 December    1pm to 4pm
Tamarack Lodge
21 Ten Rod Road
Voluntown, CT

You can check out the Tamarack Lodge on their website at www.tamaracklodgect.com

Art Matters:

Rick has recently finished his most recent commission piece and is working on several new paintings.  Photos of new work will be posted on the art gallery pages here at Catfeather.

We think that's all the news for the moment.  Please spread the word about this website to friends (or enemies, as you see fit) and remember that we love hearing from you.  Email to rick@catfeather.com
Until later,
Rick and Sarah
