TRUCK STOP FASHION TIPS & STORIES FROM THE ROAD!


TRUCK STOP FASHION TIP #1:

BIGGER IS ALWAYS BETTER
and a few fun stories from our tour along the way!


We had a great time browsing the truck stops of America, and in Albuquerque, NM this was one of the top fashion finds!

In our quest to find traffic that could rival Austin's rush hour...we came up empty handed.  While Santa Fe had some road construction, the view was amazing and lasted a whopping 8 minutes!  

In Estes Park we found 3 moose, a pack of angry elk with big racks (ha, ha, ha...she said racks), lost a camera in the National Park...then found the camera thanks to some good samaritans with big hearts!

In Minnetonka,MN we found a new group of friends in music playing our hearts out to a crowd relaxing on the green grass, and gained a tribe of 3 year olds running and dancing past us at lightening speed.

At our July 1st show in Minneapolis Hilary celebrated a Birthday with 5 cousins and 10 close friends that drove in from as far away as Kansas City to help her celebrate!  No...it wasn't a mile stone birthday...which made it even a BIGGER surprise!!!

In Trempealeau, WI we sang with the trains, watched the sun set over a river barge and enjoyed some spotted cow after an inspired National Anthem with the crowd to close the show.

In Duluth, MN we shared 4 shows with Bill and Kate Isles...and got a chance for some wonderful inspiration sharing life stories, hopes and dreams with some lemon-chello and home cooking. 

In Kansas City we played a block party that ended with 2am tennis lessons from the local mega-tennis pro TK. 

This morning we woke up in downtown Telluride listening to Bear Creek bubble past our bedroom window...and I hit my internal snooze button at least 5 times!

So many great shows...adventures and memories made over the last 2 months.  

Our hearts are full, bones are feeling a bit weary, and our souls are growing sore for that patch of dirt we call home back in Texas...but wow, has it been a great ride!

Thanks to everyone for a great adventure!!!
