I’m back from Denver and getting back in the swing of things. I can’t tell you how excited I was to smell ocean air after feeling dried out in Denver. I had fun but I’m glad to be home. Not sure what’s up with the summer calendar because Tuesdays have been a desert for a few weeks now… Don’t get me wrong, there’s stuff going on it’s just not my kind of stuff. Maybe that’s what the summer season brings and the seasons of the year are like seasons of music? We have Rcoktober to look forward to after all 🙂

Greetings from Denver! The weather has been hot and the first three nights, we had rain! The first night was some crazy thunder and lightening so, the power went out for a bit. Kind of wild to experience something like that again because it’s been a bit more than a minute with real weather, especially living in San Diego. The calendar is a bit anemic this week, likely due to the holiday. I hope you all have a lovely 4th of July and stay safe!

I would love to tell you all that I went out every night last week and went to multiple shows, but to tell you that would be to tell a lie. I’ve still been in hibernation mode, but like a groundhog, I’m ready to poke my head out. I’m still wildly obsessed with Off Campus and the music, which safe to say, has broadened my horizons. Super thrilled for all the love G Flip is getting because of the show as well! It’s kind of fun to see the wider world discover an artist you’ve been fond of for many years. Now, if only we could figure out a way to do that with all our favorite bands, right? Also, it’s opening day for the local fair this Tuesday!
