Cohasset

You got it, Dan.

On the 29th of October, I will be in Cohasset, Massachusetts at the Red Lion.

On the very next night, I'll be in Lawrence, Massachusetts.

Nice.

I'm sending my

friends and all their friends to that show.

I know people in Cohasset.

Are you going to spend

He appeared indifferent to all about him, and sometimes I thought he even hated himself.

When he visited Cohasset in 1849 and witnessed a terrible death scene after the shipwreck of an Irish brig, he remarked that if he had found one body cast upon the beach in some lonely place, it would have affected him more.

A man, he adds, can attend but one funeral in the course of his life, can behold but one corpse, in which saying there is a reference to his own bereavement.

It is noticeable that in his week on the Concord and Merrimack rivers his brother, though necessarily often alluded to, is not once mentioned by name.

His accounts of these vast sandy tracts are extremely vivid and picturesque.

The very dash and roar of the waves seem to be reproduced as though we were reading, as the author suggests, with a large conch shell at our ear.

It was amidst these surroundings that Thoreau, after witnessing the pathetic scenes that followed the wreck of an Irish brig at Cohasset, walked and meditated with a companion, Ellery Channing presumably, though the name is not recorded, in the wet windy days of a stormy October.

Oh.

Oh, I have friends in Cohasset.

Let's see.

Some don't start until 11:00 AM.

There's one in Cohasset, Massachusetts, that doesn't start till 1:00 PM.

You know, the differ- And that's, like, two weeks before Boston, so I don't do that one anymore.

Um, but you know, 1:00 PM start, it's like, wow, in April it's 50 degrees in the morning.

From part of the farm you can see an ocean inlet and a lot of very big, beautiful, expensive homes, a place where you wouldn't think a farm would be able to remain as there's been such a push to build things out.

So it's tucked in in Cohasset.

It comes from the Wampanoag word konahaiset, I think, which means rocky shore, and it's the farm and the land around it and the neighborhood around it is full of beautiful outcroppings, like big granite outcroppings.

And i- i- it's a challenge for the farmers [laughs] because we have some cliffs on this 5.25 acres, like steep drops.
