Going to see my mom in New York hoping for a good time.

Today was another beautiful day with sun shining on falling leaves. Beau and I walked past the "No Trespassing" sign onto Lowes' empty field. We’d always wanted to go over there, but the grass was always so tall, we couldn’t. They have cut the grass or at least mashed it down so today was our day. We didn’t find anything, but we did enjoy the adventure. He bounded thru the tall wet grass and had a great ...

... he had a rough "terrible two's") stage, and we still have to watch carefully so he won't tear out of the front door for one of his high speed runs, but for the most part he is well behaved and extremely smart! The first picture was taken when we first got him; the second shows a more mature dog! He still loves to take a toy outside with him when he goes for a walk.


And I have arrived!
As I ...

... Lyrics :"California, here we come" musical inspiration from the start. The road music is bound to be great, Sumner hooked us up with a Sirius radio. So far we've got some Rider's in the Storm, Yellow Submarine, and Bennie and the Jets.

Headed down to Greensboro, NC to stay with good ole pal Justin Cohee. I hate being in this car, I want to scream and shout. Fast driving just sounds like a bad idea..Better things ahead...

Winston-Salem has been the best stop so far. We played at the Stevens Center, which was a great space, with really knowledgeable and friendly crew members. The show went extremely well, and the kids seemed to really enjoy the show. Our hotel was a truly interesting experience. You could tell that once upon a time it was a not-so-great place, that was recently renovated and made into a "salon and day spa." It was pretty nice, but still with hints ...

I would like to thank all the riders for helping me get up some of those hills and for being great teammates.

Tomorrow is another big day - I leave for Texas and the Lone Star Circle of Life Tour.

... Wyndham, etc. We hit the road and took us about 7 hours to get back to Gboro. I took the wheel and let Pops rest. We both shared our time under the weather but managed to rally quickly on the trip. And what a trip it was- too many memories, sights and great times to recount yet- need to reflect some more and hopefully the pics/videos will do a little justice. A trip we'll definitely never forget. Thanks Pops.

This trip was really fun. I really liked actually working on the house and had a great group to work with. I met a lot of really cool people and had a great week. The amount of change in the house was amazing by the time we got done with it. The woman who lived there was a pack rat and had **** all over the place. There were coupons that expired 7 years before in her house haha. But we cleaned up most of the place and redid the entire living room and crawlspace.
