After a couple thousand miles, a couple weeks and a dozen shows... I'm back on the Farm! The Menagerie (see previous post) and I pulled into our new homestead- The Farm. If you look real close at the picture (you can click on it for a larger version) you can see the RV Madison resting peacefully. Our first visitor to the Farm was a dude who does those fly overs and takes pictures and comes to your place and tries to sell 'em to you. Well... he found a sucker here!! :)
Fairchild and I decided to move out of the city. I've been promising my dogs (through the years... there was- Abby, Kramer, Newt, Maggie and now Daisy) that I would move to a farm. Finally, Daisy gets to realize that dream. She's LOVES it here more than any of us. I don't think JJ really cares one way or another... she's a fish you know... but she does get a pretty cool view of the 'back 40'. Dusty the cat is pretty sure she's ready to go out huntin' but we're a little leery to let her out there by herself yet. She's never been outside. So we take her out on a kitty harness which she tires of after a little while. The one thing I didn't consider is that I'll be spending a lot of time on a lawn mower... in my standard Farm Wardrobe! 
The tour was great- I can't thank all the House Concert Hosts enough- they are all so different yet so the same too. It's like a bunch of old friends hanging around listen to music and drinking a glass of wine or a beer or whatever you're in the mood for. I'm excited to go out and do a whole bunch more soon! If you're interested in hosting one- send me an e-mail- HimebaughM@aol.com
We got to end the whole tour in Kansas City. We arrived Sunday because our host, Cliff, invited us to the Chiefs/Vikings football game at Arrowhead Stadium. It was another amazingly beautiful fall day- great day for football... and a bloody mary- or a Hail Mary as they called it. Monday was the show- a private event that was held at KC's new soccer stadium- The Livestrong Sporting Complex (I believe). A great place- reminded me of the Chicago Fire's stadium on the south side- Toyota Park. I wanted to go take a couple penalty shots after the show but Tiny (the head groundskeeper... who isn't exactly Tiny) thought maybe that wasn't such a good idea. Whatevs man!
I'm off for about a week- expecting some relatives any day now- and then it's off to North Dakota for a few Hello Dave shows next week at the 4Bears Casino in New Town and a club in Minot! Go to HelloDave.com for the details! Fairchild is fitting in just fine on the Farm too!! She's ready to tear into her radio show and start blogging- probably far better than my gibberish! :)
Alrighty- take 'er easy now!
ROCK ON-
HIMEBAUGH
