Sunset over Salt Lake

I took this photo by pointing my BlackBerry over my left shoulder as I was barreling East on interstate 80 with the cruise control set at 80. We drove from Ukiah, California to Midvale, Utah today. It was a very, very, very long drive, but the scenery made it (mostly) interesting. We head to Arches National Park in the morning and I'm looking forward to a good hike with my fiancee and taking some beautiful photos of the amazing arch-shaped rocks.

We had a couple of great shows over the weekend in Northern California and we have three coming up this weekend in Iowa and Illinois. The more shows we do together the tighter we sound, and it's exciting!

I had a moment today...a couple of moments...when I was gazing in awe at the wide open spaces around me. There were no buildings and no power lines, just nature in all its glory. I felt small in the grand scheme of things, but I also felt very fortunate to be a witness the majestic views. I also feel very fortunate that I get to do what I'm doing. What an adventurous life we are creating.

Time to sleep now.
