Well...not so much missing as not having been taken. Last night after our two shows and loading out I decided to drive home to spend a few days before having to be in Detroit. Well...it was definately a no goofing around kind of trip...from the Angola rest stop through getting to 271, I used all of my concentration on staying on the roadway through gusting winds and nightime white-outs. It took a bit over four hours...which wasn't too bad at all...I even came close to going the speed limit a couple of times! But I made it home a bit after 1am and was happy to sleep in my own bed for a change.
I also want to take this opportunity to give a BIG THANK YOU to Ed and Mary Ann Koch who allowed me to stay with them during my week in Buffalo...they are friends whom I met on the Delta Queen (with the River Rats bunch...in fact they're part of that group as well!). Your kindness and hospitality mean a great deal to me...it's great that Mister Mayor is doing so well...it's good to hear his laugh and see that mischevious smile in his eyes! I will definately make time this summer to come up for a visit and actually play tourist! Maybe Delilah will warm up to me next time...ya think?
