_ This is the longest picnic I ever went to.
I'm the only one ever to end at Carnegie Hall.
In a way, my 33 years with the Weavers have been a picnic.
We've had ants and poison ivy,
sudden squalls to send us running for cover,
and always the promise of sunshine coming back.
I'd say we're lucky to have lived through the worst of times and the best of times.
_ Times to try the soul, _ times to free the soul.
_ _ We've had the hope of surviving to get us through. _ _ _
The love that we shared with our audience at Carnegie Hall was _ _ absolutely overwhelming. _ _ _
A once-in-a-lifetime experience,
and [G] _ truly worth all the trouble we had getting there.
