YOU NEVER FORGET YOUR FIRST TIME (IN THE PNW)
(May 08, 2013)
I am heading up I-5 from Seattle to Portland. Don’t worry, I am not driving as I type this. I am sitting in a Bolt Bus, which has wi-fi. And 3-prong plug ins at every seat! How civilized. Out of the window across the aisle to my left the sky is grey, the cedars and pines are fuzzy with mist. Out of the window directly to my...

Sunday Night Photo Post!
(June 3, 2012)
Thanks to Justin Moore & Cate Godley for their awesome live shots! I’m also including a photo I took a few years ago in Barcelona, looking over the city from Park Guell (a Gaudi creation that I believe is the closest I will ever feel to walking around in Candyland).

In the fifties Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor ate there with their husbands. Decades...

WHAT I’M LISTENING TO: MATT HARLAN’S “TIPS & COMPLIMENTS”
(May 29, 2012)
The Kerrville Folk Festival kicked off last Thursday with a very special performance by one of my favorite touring songwriters alive today, a younger-than-he-should-be-with-a-voice-like-that troubadour named Matt Harlan. I played a show with Matt a couple years ago and he gave me a copy of his...

Happy holidays! I hope that you are enjoying this season and relishing in the fun of gifting, eating, and having an excuse to be extra perky to strangers. I love it.
