Good day! I'm writing from the Farm today- what a glorious fall it's been so far. I took a trip to Grand Rapids, MI last week to play with a group called Home Again. It was their cd release party and what a great time it was. I opened the show with about a 45 minute set and then spent most of the rest of the night on stage with HG. We got there early enough on Wednesday night for a little rehearsal at Mackinaw Harvest Studios - that's where HD recorded our last record… or rekad as the Colonel likes to call it. The Colonel owns Mackinaw Harvest- he's the feller we made Chicago Twang with. Some of you will remember we streamed almost the whole affair on the internets! Good memories of "Magoo After Dark" and "count the olives"….
The show was great- we sang my favorites- Holding on to Love and Lightning McQueen! I was in Mackinaw Harvest doing some recording last fall when Home Again was recording so I got to sit in a bit.. hence I knew the tunes!! 
Fairchild made the trip with me and we spent the night in the Holtgrieve driveway.. in the RV Madison of course- he invited us in like a good host but, really, we have everything we need in the MoHo so we'd rather just spend the night in it. The next morning we got to hang out with the Andy and Emily and their three wee ones- Matthew, Mary and Molly! What a bunch of cuties they are! We had "Western Breakfast" in recognition of The Farm that Fairchild and I now live on. Thanks Emily!This week- tomorrow- we are headed to Effingham, IL for a Hello Dave show. Thursday night at the EPC- it's a beautiful theater in Marty's hometown. Big Al Wetzel is sitting in with us because Longbons can't be there! We're gonna have us a good time.
Vicki, Marty's wife has been working hard hard hard on this show! Thanks so much Vicki!
Alrighty- see you in E-ham.
Rock On and Take 'er easy!
