Twenty-five years later the group returned to Wesleyan for a reunion concert. Sadly, original member Chan Daniels had passed away during the interval. When Steve Trott [far right] left the group in 1962, he was replaced by Gil Robbins, formerly with John Stewart's pre-KT group the Cumberland Three.

The beaches here in Florida are clogged this week with spring breakers. In a reverse move, our granddaughter, a Florida gulf coast high school junior, is up in New England with her parents looking at colleges. One school they will visit is Wesleyan Univ. in Middletown, CT. One of the school's claims to fame is that it is the alma mater of the terrific 60's folk group The Highwaymen. I told our granddaughter to drop their name in any interviews she has.
Back in my college acceptance days, the closest I ever would have gotten to Wesleyan was buying The Highwaymen's
album Homecoming, recorded live at the school.
