Terrapin. All the Deadheads of the world will be keeping the word alive. Terrapin Station, the 1977 9th studio LP, had a couple of my favorite Grateful Dead songs - Estimated Prophet and the epic title cut. And speaking of museums,

“”Terrapin Station” stands as a “place” in imagination, full of potential. It was the name given to the museum that was never built, meant to house the Dead’s archives and provide a performance and experience space.”

Kinda fits right in with what you are doing, Joel. I love reading your posts. I take about twice the estimated read time, but then, so much time and so little to do.

I did not know about the Grateful Dead album! Thanks for sharing that!

I hope the Deadheads get their museum, but only if it's a museum that allows photos and video recording.

Fralin? UVa library? YouTube? Ken Burns might be engaged? Write a script for a short Burns-style photo documentary -- you know, paanning and zooming over am otherwise static scene -- with some great voice narrating? Maybe even interviews? Just some ideas. Run it on PBS.
