After saying our final goodbyes to Josh’s Nana just before Thanksgiving we spent a weekend with family sharing stories about this amazing woman. Her funeral was on Friday and much of the family was able to stay through the weekend. Being a part of this close family can be a bit overwhelming at times but... Continue Reading →

Definitely wrapping up our year quickly now. We left Indy late last week and went back to Detroit. This week we will finish up the preparations for taking the truck out again next year.

Still in Indy.
Coming This Week: November 25 – December 1

Not So Different

Coming This Week: November 11 – 17

After these last two shows the trailer is going to visit Indianapolis for some repairs. We will probably stay with it and also be going... Continue Reading →
Storm Chasing
This was shaping up to be the first year that Josh and I didn't end up doing shows in inclement weather. Our client is very dutiful about keeping their truck in fair weather. Now our last week this year will be a bit of luck and we did spend some miserably hot weeks down south... Continue Reading →
