Before our last show on this little short tour, we found a really spectacular sushi and Thai place just around the corner from our venue in Leland, PA. This is the Sex On The Moon roll, which the waitress kept hushing her voice over, I guess cause the next table had a bunch of kids…

Beautiful day, beautiful day. Woke up in the shadow of what I grew up thinking of as “my Grandpa’s mountain” – Mount Nittany. We didn’t make time to go up and see if any sign of his old house is still there. Probably really foolish of me not to make the time. We’re driving home along the river in the first sunshine we’ve seen in a week and – well – I think we’ll all eager to just be going HOME. The shows have been great, the audiences have been wonderful and we’re homeward-bound triumphant, but I AM glad to be going HOME. My neck is sore, my computer’s bulging with photos and video and there’s a certain Zen to the post-tour SORT that I really am looking forward to.

Last night’s show was Lovely. Acoustic Brew has a great little following there in central Pennsylvania and I grew up Loving this area. Nostalgic and bitter-sweet, it’s so different now – completely unrecognizable. But then again, so am I.

Arriving back home in Baltimore, MD – after a week on tour in the grey and gloom, it sure looks like home is destined to be beautiful and sunshiney! Time to put up the hammock! Mosno gets dibs!
It’s Magic night! And one of our friends who have Gathered just bought this beautiful beast! I’d been sitting in the Living room waiting for friends to show and suddenly I perked up as I heard the nostalgic, beautiful sound of a VW bus engine – and Mosno laughed at me a bit. I was so excited as our friend rolled in and I HAD to ask if I could take her for a drive later… after playing a couple of games of Magic we all piled back into the Vanagon and drove around the block. A couple of additional blocks. Down the street. Oh my god, it was so good. I miss my bus.
