We are getting ready now.  The alarm system is getting installed, my daughter is getting schooled on where to buy groceries, each store having its own benefits, the tent is drying and my display is set up for a test run. 

Edmonds was really the last show of spring and with summer here officially yesterday Utah will be our first show of the summer season.  This is exciting as we are about to embark on a whirlwind 4 show tour through Utah, Colorado and Michigan. 

The hotel reservations are made, for everyday through Colorado and then only for the shows after that.  I haven't really figured out where we will be between Colorado and Chicago, but, I am predicting a trip to Johnny's sandwich shop in Chicago. 

The food during our trip is both an experience of the worst of American Cuisine and the best.  We eat at places like the Blue Door, green beans and stuffed cheeseburgers, and Johnny's, Beef Sandwiches, and often end up eating the tasteless food offered just off the freeway.  I don't get to cook for almost a month which makes me  a little sad.  I've been cooking pretty much every night as a result, Salmon, Chicken, Steak, Roasted food, etc.  Trying to get it out of my system. 

See you on the road,

Jason
