Hi everyone! We're back in LA after an amazing trip to the East Coast. I played in Norfolk, VA (right on the Bay!) with Pure Prairie League and The Temptations!!! It was amazing. It was also SWELTERING! Like....107 degrees at dusk, or something?? Nuts! But a great crowd and a great setting and great music. After the Norfolk show, we crashed in the hotel and got up early for a flight to Baltimore for an Annapolis, MD show (2) at RamsHead. What a BEAUTIFUL town! I love walking around and gazing at all of the old homes and shops on the cobblestone streets. Also, I stumbled upon a Starbucks in the bottom of an old Hotel that hosted some amazing blues artists, back in the day. Chet Baker (one of my fav's) had newspaper clippings and showbills everywhere, along with many other icons. It was the best Iced Soy Latte I've ever had!

Next week we're headed to Montana, then back to San Diego for the fair there. Please keep checking in and come see us!!

As always, God's blessings!!!
xoxo.

Hello everyone! Hope this Spring is treating you well. It is REALLY hot in LA right now! It's been above 90*, closer to 100* in some parts for a few days now. It's still as beautiful as ever, though. And the smells! OHMIGOSH! It smells like Eden around here with the night blooming jasmine, roses, sage, lavender, & eucalyptus trees everywhere. Awesome! I'll be in Nashville soon (for my brother and sister-in-law's baby shower!) and look forward to soaking up the beauty there too! Especially, the lilacs. Oh!.....and thunderstorms. Amazing! I'm hoping to get some crawfish when we're there and have a great cookout, see some old friends, and enjoy my family. When it's this hot outside I LOVE to eat cold, salty, watermelon!! NEED, NEED, NEED some o'that!

Much love goes out to Kenny Chesney for hurting his foot recently. Need to get the personal scoop on that one, but love to my bud anyway!

SO excited to see the premiere of Grey's Anatomy on Thursday night! I've been in love with it since the very first show. I've worked in hospitals briefly, before music, and it's just something I'm connected to.

I've written some new songs and am working them up in my garage at the moment. Creativity, for me, comes in waves, so......I'm thrilled to feel the current picking up. I'm trying to focus more on the spiritual side of life and thank God for so many ways that He's blessed me and that's coming out some in the writing. So much goodness and even more gratitude!

Speaking of 'gratitude', thanks for stopping by and being such patient 'pals'.
Have an amazing May and God Bless!
xoxo...
