Hi Kids Well, I made it back alive! Both from the tour and my flight home. Got back home on Saturday and after a weekend of relaxing...sort of...it's jump right into house cleaning to get ready for a boatload of relatives coming down next Sunday! It feels good to be here again though there's been some adjustments in getting used to being home. But some habits I'm finding hard to let go like, I've yet to stop living out of my suitcase. Sheesh!

Hi KidsWhen we last left our hero....yea, hero.

As I write this, we are on the second day of a 1300 mile trip from Washington to New Mexico and each day we'll have s...

Hi KidsI can't believe it's less than a month that we have left on the tour! We have just a handful of places to go until the end of May, that's because the last 10 days we're in one place...at the John Ascuaga's Nugget Hotel and Casino in Sparks NV.

I also found out that we are cutting the show down to 90 minutes and doing a...
