I loved the way she said “LA”.

We have been traveling for about 4 days now. 12 hour shifts and I feel very unaccomplished. The days are so long in our travels. I want to get back to playing music again. We’ve been working on Bryan’s music, but it’s not the same feeling of accomplishment when it’s someone else’s music. I’ve also been listening to a lot of My Morning Jacket and Sigur Ros while I read On The Road. The book is very simple and has great quick descriptions of everything. It’s interesting to be reading it while we’re on the road as well. It makes me glad to have a purpose. It’s sad to see the main character trudge through life with no agenda or plan and living day to day just to get by and stay alive.

On the other hand, the fall is beautiful out here in the northwest. I hadn’t been to South or North Dakota in years, and never in the falls. It has such beautiful countryside and plains. I recommend everyone come out here at some point in their lives. Yesterday was great listening to country sounds and driving and riding up front. The music, the mood, the temperature and the scenery just fit so well. Though the ride has been nice, I’m getting anxious for the tour to start. 2 more days, I am excited.
