My world is upside down right now. So this morning I chose to put on a T-shirt that would remind me of my happy place. It also has ties to how I became a coyote. About 3 hours south of me is a gorgeous casino resort called Casino Rama. It's been the site of many, …

Hospitals and hotel lobbies: The waiting is the hardest part
I don't mind waiting. I'm not a patient person. I polished off my bucket list last year at age 33 because I've spent the last 20 years just plowing ahead with whatever plan my heart latched onto. But I've spent a ton of time just sitting around, waiting for something to happen. Waiting for a …

California Girl
The other day, an account I follow on Twitter, @beachboyslegacy, asked followers to post pictures if we had ever been to the legendary (in Beach Boys fan circles) Paradise Cove near Los Angeles. This is where the Beach Boys' album cover for Surfin' Safari was shot, which was their very first album way back in …
Detroit Rock Taxi
I have a soft spot for Detroit, I really do. I've been there a few times, and I've always found it to be a city down on its luck, but full of good people. You can tell by the architecture that it was once a grand place, and I hope that one day it finds …

I love you, for sentimental reasons…
Still with the difficulty posting on schedule, evidently. I'll get there! When I arrived home from Michigan, the long long 7.5 hour drive mentioned in my last post, my parents were in town. So I haven't quite had any downtime yet...in fact, waiting at the local Mazda dealership for my oil change right now …
Highs, lows, and ‘not ready to go’s.
So I see I still haven't mastered this blogging while travelling thing! In fairness, I tried. I had a post started on Sunday, and it sat there on my phone until late Monday night when we got home, but my heart wasn't in it. My family had an emergency going on back home, and blogging …
In sickness, health, and tour season.
In almost exactly 36 hours, I plan to be on the road to Michigan. We have a 7 and a half hour drive ahead of us, to Mount Pleasant, which is somewhat of a pilgrimage for me. It's a sentimental stop on a journey to a concert in Detroit. So of course I've been sick …
