OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA My brother and Del are also visiting the Pittsburgh area and take us fishing. OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA Out of poles, though I’m satisfied to sit and document, Heather is any Boy Scout’s wet dream and grabs her self some line and a stick and promptly joins the hunt for fishes!

“If you were immortal, I could understand your choices better.” I ran into the man who wrote that line, Brad Yoder, tonight at an open mic in Pittsburgh. I’d heard it years ago and always imagined it something that would be said to me more frequently than I could ever utter it to someone else. I…

This moment is good for the soul. Last night we played one of my absolute favourite places – the Saint Charles Coffeehouse in Saint Peters, MO. A random find, our friend Jamie actually made the call that hooked us up with the venue and I’m so grateful that Jack (the owner) actually took a chance…

Some cool crochet are in a shop window in Belleville, IL. I don’t even remember where I shot this, but I felt it was one of the few good examples of wise, helpful grafitti! We’ve spent several of our days abusing the internet at a new Belleville-ian coffeehouse / music venue / dance studio /…
