At Uncommon Grounds in Chicago, our friend Jerry sat in on fiddle. No reheasal, but he sounded great anyhow.

Bob and Mary Nack came to our show at Uncommon Ground after seeing us at the Door Auditorium. As far as we know, these are these are the only folks to see us twice this tour, making them our #1 fans!

You're never gonna believe this, but the Operations Manager at radio station KVPE in Elkhart is named Claudia Russell, too. She's a great singer and she did a duet with "our" Claudia on Angelk From Montgomery. Stereo Claudias! Our thanks to Norm Mast and Geoff Huys at WGCS for getting a great turn out at the Electric Brew.

Claudia noticed a photo on the wall at the Electric Brew. It was taken by Bruce's brother Jon, a professional photographer from Berkeley CA.

Sunday was a day off for us, meaning we actually got to sleep at the same motel two nights in a row. Our big Sunday was spent in South Bend, IN, where we toured the Studebaker Museum. Note that the inscription on the car says Los Angeles to New York.

In Alamosa, when we went to check out the Cottonwood B&B, the owner, Deb Donaldson, said she wished she could have some folk music in Alamosa. Bruce negotiated an exchange of music for accommodations, and we had a very intimate but fun concert in the Inn's living room that night.

Kevin cooked an awesome breakfast and we were on our way, though we wanted to stay another night.
