'2 Take about 10,000 • people
and dump them (ferry them
actually) on to an island in
Toronto Harbour and what do you "
have? Sunday, at the Mariposa
Folk Festival.
At least that's where we spent
Sunday, forsaking a day on the
beach at Lake Huron or a day of
work in the .cool breeze that
always blows' arourid our house,
for an early morning drive to
Toronto. ("You've gotta be
nuts", my sister said, from the
beach at Lake Huron.)
But we had a lovely day on the
cool, grassy island, listening to
some of the best music we've
heard in years. Mariposa was
packed with people, but the
island location allowed things to
spreadout so that 'you di dn't
really feel the crowd. Seven
".1) stages in separate areas were set
up for musicians who alternated
locations. during the day. ,
There was a native peoples
pavilion where Indian performers :
traditional dancers and country
singers and Inuit people could be
seen.
For people interested in crafts,
there.. We're lots of those, with
everybody from lace markers to
toy 'makers showing how to do
things. The:best place of all, ,for
those who aren't excited about
hamburger's, chips and pop as a
steady diet, was a food tent with
fresh baked bread, exotic tossed
salads, watermelon and
strawberries and yogurt. Is was
cheaper than the junk food from
the usual island restaurants anda
whole lot more refreshing. ,
Going over to the island Sunday
morning we managed to just stay
ahead of the crowd. Our ferry was
packed but we only waited 20
minutes for it. Friends who
followed us over spent two hours
of music listening time at the
ferry dock close to beautiful
downtown Toronto.
When we arrived at' the
Mariposa gates mit progress was
slowed down a little, because
some friends who had tickets for
us weren't there. But even
waiting for them wasn't all that
much of a trial; we could lie oh the
grass under the trees, people
watch and listen to the music
from the two stages that were
closest to the gates..
Once we got our tickets we had
access to all seven performing
stages inside the double snow
fence that made gate hopping
quite unlikely. We heard strange
and wonderful groups like Taj
Mahal, Sneezy Waters, Rev.
Pearly Brown and. the Strange
Creek Singers, Some of the best
music was impromptu, under the
trees, sessions where one
guitarist would meet another and
then a banjo and a fiddle or two
would join in.
The highlight of our day on the
island was one of the last sessions
when Myrna Lorrie, Colleen
Peterson and four or five other
really good performers sat down
on stage together and took turns,
-with a little help from each other,
playing and singing what the
program called "Hurtin' Songs".
The songs ranged from those
played for a laugh like "You've
Got Sawdust on the Floor of Your
Heart", to those about serious
hurtin'---a fine version of "The
Brand New Tennesee Waltz".
The performers,had fun and the
audience came right along with
them, laughing and listening as
they sat on the grass. Audiences
were mostly in the 20 to 35 age
range but there were lots older
and lots of families.with little ones
who could attend a special
pavilion with entertainment for
them. It was a friendly
.croWd...we didn't see any of the
ugliness or fights that often
happen when you get that many
people together in a small space.
It was a pleasant rambling sort
of day; oddly enough more
relaxing than "a •day out in the
county when the countay has all
the work you have to do staring
you in the face.
The highlight came at night
when we got on. the ferry to go
back to Toronto. There were still
probably 1000 people still in line
for the regular island ferry at
9:30. Facing a three hour drive
home, we decided to take a
in hospital
Steyen Butt, 16, of
Egmondville is now out of the
intensive care unit of Stratford
General H ospital following a
tractor accident last week.
Mr. Butt suffered broken ribs,
shoulder, pelvis, ankle and a
punetuied lung when the tractor
he was on crashed through a barn
wall and fell 12 feet onto a pile of
rocks. He was working .on the
farm of John Holland of R.R.3,
Seaforth at the time of the
accident,
Steven was listed in critical
dOndition until Wednesrfay before
bang moved out of the int ensive
care Unit. His condition is now
sitible, but is stilt serious,
acciStding to the hospital,

Abd Mrs. Stewart Butt, has just'

smaller boat which costs 51, one
way back to the foot of Bay.Street.
As we stood in line for the
smaller boat my eagle, eyed
husband saw Myrna, Lorrie, with
acouple of friends, come up
behind us. Now he had been quite
knocked out ,by her tine singing,
her obvious warmth and her
beautiful eyes when we saw her ,
earlier. •
Once we got on the boat, guess
where Myrna Lorrie sat down?
Yup, right next to the better half
and she was carrying her own
guitar and an extra pair ofandals
and she looked just as real and
ordinary as anybody else...except.
for those eyes!
Well they had a little bit of
conversation about how he liked
her singing and how she was
pleased.- with the , way, her first
Mariposa performance had gone.
