JUNE
19, 2005 --
Prior
to the June 19 game between the Yankees and the Cubs, LPR met
a group that traveled from Nova Scotia for the game.
Recently, LPR heard from Nova Scotia artist Robb Scott and mention him to the
visitors.
Robb has a website now - and LPR commends it to clicksters:
www.robbscottarts.com.
LPR learned that people in Nova Scotia root for Toronto or the Yankees, and also
for the Red Sox.
Apparently close tie were formed between Boston and Halifax after an explosion
in Halifax harbor in 1917 -- during World War I -- that prompted Boston to send
doctors and aid.
LPR was told that each Christmas Nova Scotia marks that act of kindness by sending
Boston a Christmas tree.

LPR here sugggests
that the Boston Red Sox engage the talented Robb Scott -- he
recently completed a commission to design maps for a company
in the
Hamptons, on Long Island -- to use his talent to make line drawings of the
Red Sox -- and their fans, for display at Fenway Park and throughout Red Sox
Nation.
