By making adjustments and preparing to pivot, many organizers of the outdoor events believe they can safely resume the traditions this year.

In another sign that Mainers may soon be able to reclaim some of the small pleasures of their pre-pandemic lives, fairgrounds around the state will open this summer and fall for folks to mingle with barnyard animals or snack on fried dough and apple crisp.

One week ago today the world lost a promising blues talent on the rise, and this columnist lost a dear friend. Joseph Mojo Morganfield passed away suddenly after suffering a heart attack leaving the Chicago Blues community and blues fans around the globe stunned.
The sad news came just as a serious buzz was building around Morganfield s forthcoming full-length album for the international blues label, Delmark Records. Publications and blues radio outlets were starting to clamor for interviews with Muddy Waters youngest son, the latest Morganfield to enter the family business.
My path first crossed with Joseph when he made a guest appearance in 2016 on my 89.1FM-Lakeshore Public Radio program to talk about wanting to create a book about his iconic father, bluesman McKinley Muddy Waters Morganfield, and efforts by his family to re-purpose his old family home in Westmont, Illinois into a Muddy Waters museum.
