39 feels GREAT!!! “Look at me like I’m a child, and flash me your best pirate smile!” I am 39 years old. I’m the best mother I know how to be, but still not nearly as good as my own mother. I’m the best wife I know how to be (and maybe just a bit...
2016 All In Tour
So, what do you do when everyone has suggested you play a venue and you try to contact them for several months with no return? You go there and force them to let you play…nicely, of course. This was the case with the Brickhouse in Vancouver. So, if you’re keeping up with the All-In Tour...
2016 All In Tour
If a picture’s worth a thousand words… There’s just a something classy about saving a partially drank Pabst by duct taping the opening so you can finish it while you’re cooking breakfast the next morning… “Archering” done right.ย Thus begins day 8. This time it was our turn to clean out our water-logged bed. It...

“What’s THAT? Wait!” “You’re hitting something!” “Is that a tree?!?!” “Oh my God, it’s a basketball hoop!” “Oh no! It’s falling over!” “Jared, stop!” Kim, Jared, and Jessi, pile out of the RV like the Keystone Copsย to the neighbor’s toppled hoop on the curb, desperately lifting, turning, aligning. Hoop’s up!

2016 All In Tour
After the stop n go traffic getting into the city, the harrowing narrow navigation of the residential streets, Siri not comprehending the unbelievably non-existent turning radius or U-turn capability of our 32′ of streamlined 1989 Ford Lindy RV/trailer vehicular capacity, then trapcing our gear down the street (in the bike lane…you know, Portland) in the...
