Well, as you see from the date of this post, I am woefully behind on my blog entries. The whirlwind of the tour behind me, I came back to Door County and settled right back down to songwriting--another good use of time, if I do say so myself. And I hardly took any pictures in Chicago...but here are some highlights. First off, a video, from our oh-so-fun house concert at our friends Tim and Ellie's house. It's "Union Maid," which we played at every show on the tour and had been trying to capture live for a few weeks.
...but not back to Door County--yet. First Rich and I divided our efforts for a little while--Rich back home to make pottery, me to the St. Paul/Minneapolis area, where I grew up, to spend time with my family and play a few last shows. I played a great house concert in White Bear Lake and a fun show at Park Square Theater, saw a bunch of my favorite relatives, and capped off the week playing at Carleton College, my alma mater, in Northfield. The weather in Minnesota couldn't have been nicer (given that it was the first week of April), and it was a great way to finish off the tour.
