Planning Next Trek
Beginning to make plans for an early summer 2010 trip up the New England coast with a stop in Virginia then onto Newport, Provincetown on Cape Cod then up the coast to Maine where we hope to visit with long-time friend and artist Richard T. Reminger who keeps a summer studio at Kennebunkport.
I first met Dick Reminger aboard a crew boat on its way to meet and greet the Jennie Johnston off Palm Beach. The recreation of a 19th-century Irish famine ship was making the first stop on a tour of the the U.S. East Coast.
Dick, a prominent Midwestern attorney-turned-marine-artist had purchased a winter home in South Florida and was part of the welcoming committee. I subsequently had an opportunity to write an article on Dick's eclectic career for The Palm Beach Daily News and we became friends.
Dick, who used to keep a small in-home studio on Monhegan Island off the Maine Coast, still winters in Palm Beach but now has a studio in Kennebunkport, Me., and suggested I stop by for a visit should I ever decide to head "Down East" . . .
