i was playing there

with

dave dyer &

the crooked smile band

i had time before the

squeezed one..

a trip to indiana

by way of

the motor city

got me a few cool

photos.

the detroit airport

offered several fun things

to take a shot at

in a tunnel that took

us between

terminals....they

must have dropped

a few quid on this.

the lights changed

and the music

was dreamy.

finally...back home

in indiana.

the lake that "makes"

the town thrive.

i stayed with my

sister and kicked

back and chilled

for a few days.

we grew up in a small town

in ohio but this place has

the same vibe and feel.

and yes....my sister

has a lot of cool things

around.

i rolled over and looked

at this each morning.

my sister is and

has a 'book-worm'

in her garden.

as i sat on her front porch

i took notice of a ton of

bikes roaming the streets

at 20mph

the city tavern

was anything but.

very, very expensive

and fine food.

vvvrrrrooooommm

hells angels

swamp thing

you make my heart sing

i got an unexpected

bonus for playing

a recent gig.

the place had a lake

that was beautiful.

 

i'd never seen

anything like it

in north carolina

before.

i had a brief visit

to a small, quiet

farm recently and

walked away

feeling relaxed

and at peace.

if you're under the age

of 18 you might

recognize the dude

who's the center of

attention.

 

hannah (r) is a new

student who skipped

a lesson to get this shot.

 

gotta love that.

getting my shooting

chops together for

halloween.

this picture?

versions.
