On a Musical Break in the Action: Bill sings "Scrimshaw Johnny"



It was good seeing Bill Marsh at the Fort Worden Early Childhood Conference in the port city (hence the Pacific Swift tall ship image) of Port Townsend. Bill and his wife Ellen are great promoters of Block Fest, which was a subject of one of the conference presentations. Participants in the Peninsulas Early Childhood Mental Health Consultation Group know Bill not just as a math man, but as a spontaneous songster,too. Below is brief excerpt from his rendition of the song "Scrimshaw Johnny," for which he wrote the lyrics, although he will humbly tell you that Hank Cramer singing it, also below, is better. It's amazing some of the subjects we get on at group.-gw
