2023 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Back at Muddy Moโs for blogging, Jared and I were pleasantly greeted by several patrons coming in and out of the shop, all complimenting us on our show Thursday night, and promising to come to one of our remaining gigs. That is one of my favorite parts about being booked several gigs in one place....
2023 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Free fun and the fastest tear-down, this side of the Mississippi Yet again beginning our morning at Muddy Moโs. I captured this shared moment of music appreciation between dad and son. I think Jared was sharing some Red Hot Chili Peppers with Rudy (Jared here: Yes. Dani California. Awesome jam.) You know, people ask us...
2023 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
A morning to catch up at our favorite coffee shop and our first of four shows! Muddy Moโs. We occupied a corner near the piano, since thatโs where we all feel comfortable, and got down to business! The coffee shop bustles with people coming in and out, and it was fun to observe all the...
2023 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Sweet beginnings, stinky middles, and a calm eveningย With the โGreat Purse Debacleโ behind us, we all slept HARD, but Jared was still up crazy early and had us on the road by 7:15. Rudy and I woke up a couple hours in and we were all ready to stretch our legs and find some...

A very stupid mistake, an encouraging young man, and the worldโs most patient husband.ย So it was time to say good bye to to little, endearing town of Durango. We took our time packing up, making SURE to gather all our belongings form our hotel room, separate our dirty clothes to wash once in Yankton,...
2023 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
The โGotchaโ day, boppinโ around town, and a general sense of โaaahhhhhโ to be back together again. Was I awake at 6:00 am, jumping into the shower, beyond excited to pick up my not-so-baby-but-always-my-baby boy? MAYBE! Ok, yes I was. And I donโt regret it! Jared and I were supposed to get there around 8:30...
2023 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Last year was Rudyโs first year of camp, but the world was still fresh out of COVID, so a lot of things that make the camp experience special for both the campers and their families were cancelled. So we missed out on seeing his cabin, touring the grounds, the end-of-session plaque ceremony, and the family...
2023 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
As Nay, Dr Phun, Jared, and I, sauntered down Main Street, Durango, from our prime spot at the Durango Lodge, we had our sights set on a breakfast house a couple blocks up. The sun was shining and warmer than normal for the โmorningโโฆprobably closer to noon, people were milling along the busy street, shopping,...
2023 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Well, well, look who we found here in Durango?!?!? Thatโs right! Our amazing friends, Bonnie and Phil, aka, Nay Nay and Dr. Phun, decided to take a little road trip out to meet up with us for a couple days here on tour. Last year, we told them how darling this town was, and many...
2023 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Even with a dirty windshield, the beauty of the giant Colorado sky cannot be denied. And we needed it this particular morning, as the sorrow threatened to creep in with every โone more hugโ that transpired between Marianne and me. I hate goodbyes, and probably because we are closer than weโve been in years, it...
