Here we are writing from Jerome, Idaho, and man, are we feelin' good. Our first show of the tour was something special. We happened upon a fantastic community of people at Java's in Twin Falls. We even had some of the great musicians in the audience come up and play some of their music during our break - thanks Ethan and Nathan!! Coming back to play here again in October will be a joy, especially if Cole makes us a couple of those beautiful sandwiches. I don't even like cucumbers and I was eating them like they were going out of style.
Special thanks to Jean, Mike, Tiff, Cole and the whole crew at Java's!
Before turning in I want to extend a HUGE and heartfelt thank you to all of the Portlanders who came out to support us at the Cake Walk event. 81 of you showed your love for us and for sweets - and even more support was sent from the people who couldn't make it. That was tremendous!!! What a party! 15 bakers donated cakes to auction, and 5 cakes and 10 slices of this gorgeous chocolate creation were given away during our surprising and
hilarious Cake Walk. I say surprising because I don't think anyone there - including me - knew to what extent people would totally get into cake walkin'. Because of you crazy walkers, we raised enough money to pay for gas for our tour... and this, this makes me want to burst with gratitude. Long live music.
