Life’s been busy being lived! I had a fun time in Arkansas and Oklahoma with Susan last week…we had one day where we woke up in Fort Smith, AR…drove to Okmulgee, OK for a private shindig, kept driving for a show that night outside Oklahoma City…she played the show, and we got in the van [...]
More random shots from Huntington Beach. Typical tourist? Yes I am. Patio flower gazing… Some houses in Santa Monica near McCabe’s Guitar Shop. We just saw the sign, not L.A. AND A PELICAN! He knows how to make tourists feed him.
I LOVE THIS STATE. I’ve had some super fun trips to the Bay Area but never spent any time in SoCal, so when a good friend said Susan and Elizabeth should play in Huntington Beach, that sounded like a great idea. I would move here, but I’d need a job and all I’d really want [...]
We have had a delightful time driving through the Southeast this past week…we found red and orange leaves when we hit the Carolinas, thank goodness….Fall hadn’t hit Texas yet. The whole trip has also revealed that the stereotype of Southern Hospitality is alive and well. We stopped at Waffle House in Baton Rouge. One of [...]
Yep, we were gone for 5 weeks and everyone survived, even the chihuahua. It was a fun, relaxing, hard-working, scenic trip to Washington and back and we landed back almost where we began, in Taos, NM for the Big Barn Dance. One of the most enjoyable festivals around! Radney Foster snuck in a few tunes [...]
We had a great time at the Snowy Range Music Festival in Laramie this weekend…we got there a day early to see Macy Gray (Susan noted that a good Macy cover band should be called the Gracy Mays). I really only knew Macy from her big 1999 album and the song “I Try”…and her hair. [...]
Lamp. One of five. Hello from Casper, WY where the venue tonight gave us TWO HOTEL ROOMS which means I AM IN MY VERY OWN HOTEL ROOM. Thank you Jimmy and the Wonder Bar! Now, we have had a great time on this tour and a lot of fun, but as Suz points out, for [...]
We have had a swell time this trip. A lot of it has been good pacing on the shows and driving and rest days, and a lot of it is we know some nice people in gorgeous places. After Bozeman we headed to Flathead Lake where the Gibson Family has a cabin and stayed up [...]
Centennial is one of my favorite places to be. It’s about half an hour west of Laramie close to the Snowy Range Mountains. Susan’s cousins, Tony and Kelli and Baby Chance live here! Kelli and Jenn also own the Friendly Store…which encompasses a gas station, convenience store, cafe, bar, and motel all in one. Kelli [...]
I guess there is a reason Colorado is named from the word “Color.” The first shot was taken somewhere outside Walsenburg and in the second the tree is in the front yard of Don and Teri Richmond who hosted a great house concert for us last weekend. Don is a brilliant musician with a great [...]
