Greenest of greeneries, Pac Northwest sceneries...

After a lovely (read: 'lengthy') drive from Minneapolis across the great northern hills and plains...


we find our (immediate and collective) selves among the redwoods contemplating how a week of tour has already passed us by...


..after hours on end spent in the van a healthy amount of stretching is
necessary... here's our Tour God's basic routine:






... Ahhh.. nothin' like a good stretch...
... On to colorful Portland...


Look! The northwest holds old friendships!



... and new ones...
(canadians laugh too!)



..and not to be forgotten; the surreal, misty beaches...

...and golden gates...

!TEXAS!
AUSTIN - a beautiful city with its priorities in order.
(recreation is second only to music. brilliant!)

We can actually park AT THE VENUE
(unheard of in most cities)

...Practice our fireballs...
(from both ends)
...and cooool down au natural when the humidity brings on the
'cheese sweats'... gotta love The Greenbelt...



... stay tuned for more photoblargh from leg two of our journey...
