dubuque iowa is an interesting place. this particular hilarious sign (see picture at right) is from a store in a town called galena, just outside of dubuque (and outside of iowa too, actually). maybe it was the sophisticated smorgasbord of colors and shapes present in this picture, taken out of a moving car by the driver of said moving car (me); or maybe it was the little things hanging down from the oo's on the sign; whatever it was, i saw this sign and immediately knew that i had to share this with you all! you're welcome. :P
so i got to dubuque at like 4 in the afternoon on a saturday and the place was deserted! all the stores were closed, but you could tell people had been there recently. it was like a movie... (except instead of zombies, it turns out that a couple of nearby casinos were the culprit in this case of missing persons). i ended up walking around town and hanging out in a really nice park, playing some tunes and enjoying the beautiful iowan day!

overall it was a great show and a nice first visit to dubuque! the folks that i met were super nice and welcoming, and were very pumped about their town's mission, to bring some arts and culture into northern iowa. i left at midnight, headed for austin, texas!
kansas city at sunrise is beautiful, especially after 5 hours of driving :)
now i'm at the home of my good family friends, Soc and Emily Rosenfeld, here in harker heights, tx. i am so thankful to have friends like these; people, who have been so kind to me throughout this journey! tomorrow is the austin show. soooooo pumped! (...and sleepy...)
thank you :)
