the craziest skies
[i've never seen such skies as i do down here in florida. the rain and shine, then rain, then shine. it makes for pretty splendid sights]

and in honor of the crazy marathon watching of Friday Night Lights we've been doing over here i must post this song from the latest episode we saw.
this show has the BEST actors in it. it's pretty insane.
there is something about this show- it's epic.

{song: Killed Myself When I Was Young artist: A.A. Bondy}

this dusty light 18/365

Day 18/365 days on Flickr
this dusty light
[it was reallllly difficult to pick just one photo from the shoot we did on this day. as i blogged: annie and i pulled off at a random exit in missouri that seemed pretty much dead to the world. there were no houses in sight, just an empty church. super small and old and wouldn't you know, they left the doors open for us! we didn't move a thing. the floor creaked, the pews were covered in olive green suede material. the sunset crept through the windows perfectly. quite possibly the VERY BEST photoshoots i have ever done. the end.]

maid closet
[this is what i found when i went rooting around our hotel in the morning before checkout. in case you didn't know where your hotel towels are stowed, well, now you do. this was one disturbing closet. life on the road.]

Welcome to Salt Lake City

(this photo was also Day 15/365 days on Flickr)
tour keeps us busy!!!!
above is the front door of the absolutely UNREAL house annie played a show at last night. one of the homeowners was an architect and the inside was a dream. the acoustics in the room where the show was played blew our minds.
it feels really impersonal to call them homeowners but i feel i gotta protect ya know?
and they were so much MORE than homeowners.... they cooked us a delicious dinner, were as friendly as friendly could be, made latte's in the morning and had our same sense of insane humor.
what more could we ask for?
NOTHING!

this was a pre-show photo i snapped. there are so many good things going on in this room that i don't even know where to start..... so i won't even try.

a shot of the merch setup

and lastly, a shot of the show!
words cannot describe it. the intimate setting and the music put me in a trance.
1st show of the tour could NOT have gone any better and just left me starving for MORE.
BIG DRIVE DAY AHEAD.
next up, topeka, kansas.
HUGE thanks to all the people of Salt Lake who made us feel right at home.
xox, rachel
