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 →
All the things I didn’t know
After rolling around the country for more than four years you can assume I know a thing or two about travel. When we started this job, I didn't. I was no stranger to airports back then but booking hotels, flights, looking for parking, looking at mileage, finding restaurants, finding fun things to do, renting cars,... Continue Reading →
Not So Different
The way that Josh and I live may seem quite strange or extreme to some people. While we don't have a home of our own and live out of a suitcase maybe my life isn't that different from yours. Like you have a space to take care of, mine just folds up and rolls down... 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 →
Coming This Week: October 28 – November 3
We are starting our final few weeks of shows before the 2013 tour year end for us. The next few weeks will be a bit crazy and fast paced. We start out in Greensboro (visiting friends before the push), a show in Charleston, SC and one near Atlanta. Weekend plans to be determined but they... Continue Reading →
Sticker-tastic
When living with nearly all of your belongings with you in a semi truck's cab it is best to be a bit picky about what you have. Josh and I don't travel for fun, we work. My office is what fits into my backpack and this tote. We call it the "Office Box", keeper... Continue Reading →
Coming This Week: September 23 – 29
We have made a quick turn North for a few shows before heading back down the Eastern edge of the US. Most of this week we will be in the Lowell, MA area but will likely be going down to Concord on our down days. I don't know as of yet where we will be... Continue Reading →
Sweet Little Boys
Well I should have posted this a long time ago, like when I was still in Utah!! One of my favorite perks that this job brings is the chance to meet up with other bloggers. We have certainly made the rounds out east among the Scottie folk. Unfortunately we so rarely make it west that... Continue Reading →
Whistler of a View
Every job has its perks, mine of course is the travel. At least we see it as a perk. So many of our favorite places were tour stops. Often we don’t take all of our vacation time because the tours end up in a location that we find interesting and enjoy our downtime. Whistler is... Continue Reading →
Coming This Week: August 26 – September 1
We are spending another week in the Denver area, enjoying the Rocky Mountain high!!! Actually I get a bit sick at high elevations, thank goodness for ibuprofen. This will be our last week out west this year; we are departing for the Midwest and a series of stops out east and down south. Our tour... Continue Reading →
