New Van, New Band, Success!

We made it home!!!

Our first trip of 2010 is completed. It's nearly 7am and we just walked in... it was a long drive!

We played yesterday in Bossier City Louisiana at Bossier Parish Community College for their Homecoming game. I think it was the first time I have ever "opened" for a homecoming game! We played at 3, were packed up and in the car by 5:30 and started the trip home.

Our Suburban wouldn't start when we got to our apartment (we had to drive both the Burb and the van down to Columbia cause the van needs some maintenance while we're home)... so that was fun at 5am having to jump start the car after a 12 hour drive. :) But it actually seemed somewhat normal. Is that odd?? Probably... but it wasn't all that bad. Especially now that we are HOME with the monkey!!!! Cinnamon is sooooo sweet. I love that dog so much.

And our band is awesome. We had a really great first trip - great shows, some not as great shows, awesome hotels, REALLY sketchy hotels, 12 degrees, 80 degrees, a few horribly long overnight drives and some short drives.... It was a great induction into the band for the new members and a great way to start the year for all of us!

GOOD night?

Peace. Love. Fiddle.
