I’m not much of a phone app user, so I don’t know how easy the above method is. If that works or if anyone figures out an easy way to listen to WSPS on their iPhone or Blackberry, please let me know!

Who is Sherwin Sleeves?

My name is Sean Hurley and I am Sherwin Sleeves ombudsman, gopher, handyman, internet person, musical assistant, and all around amanuensis. Sherwin lives just up the road from me in the next town over and I visit him once or twice a week to pick up songs or stories or whatever he has to give me. He's an older man of about 79. He lives in a small cabin on top of Marked Mountain, in Lemon, New Hampshire. I believe he spent much of his time working for a traveling theater. He is not married and apparently has no other family. A frequent question: Does he really do all that walking? Yes! He does do a lot of walking. Even with the cane and a slightly bad leg, he walks more than anyone I know and he doesn’t seem to bother with any difference between night or day. He’ll set off at midnight for a 10 mile journey to nowhere. From what I’ve learned, he doesn’t seem to have the least idea where he’s heading to when he goes out – he just puts on his hat and walks out the door and is suddenly gone. Please feel free to contact him at sherwinsleeves(at)yahoo(dot)com.
