After an epic two-day RV ride through one of the nastiest storms I’ve ever experienced, me and half my band are safe and sound right outside Tampa, Florida in a tiny town called Odessa.  The drive was long and brutal (that’s what she said) and if had to create a keyword list to define the activities of the trip, this is how it would read:

Surly Furious
Blizzard
cell-phone Tetris
Joe Camel
pickled hot dogs
Vitamin Water
Cranium
Flaming Lips
pistachios
siamese cats
ice sheets
Arby’s
crazy christian country radio stations
Tom Petty

...the list could go on, but I’ll stop there.  A few things also had to be left out, but you can imagine what they are. 
So I’m in Florida for a couple of days.  Tomorrow, we’re renting a car and driving to see Phish in Miami.  If you haven’t seen them (when they’re on their game), you haven’t seen a live concert.  But until then, we’re enjoying the company of friends and family and hoping you are too.

Peace,
