Pizza At Gelsosomos
Made it to Valpo around 5:30 p.m. Ruby & ZZ were excited to be in Grandma's big back yard. We got the dogs settled in and then went to Gelsosomos for pizza.

I wouldn't go out of my way to go to Michigan City to find this brewpub, though. ...

We shared the stage with Hard Soul, a fantastic duo with a friend of a California friend at the front mic. We had a great 75 minute set for a small (about 30 people) but ...
