Lazy in Lakeland
We arrived in Lakeland after 4am today and I opened my eyes just enough to find my room and collapse on the bed. We're in a less than stellar hotel today which is probably why the staff was running around waking people up to clean rooms this morning even though we'd only been here a couple of hours. GRRRRRR. There's one particular member of this tour who shall remain nameless who is notorious for throwing things at the door when disturbed after an all night bus ride.David, Kristen M, and I had breakfast at a nearby Denny's around 10:30 and met up with Charlie and Jim at a record store. I purchased the Peter Cincotti CD I'd heard so much about. I'll give it a listen on the bus tonight.
I've heard from a few of the people in the fan pics I posted after last night's show, but not from the majority. I've heard from quite a few people who's pictures didn't make it to the post. Sorry, some didn't turn out.
I've been getting lots of encouraging email from fans and I'm sorry I don't have time to write everyone back. Please know that I read every letter and usually do get back with everyone. It just takes time. I sat down to return some mail this afternoon and before I knew it I was sound asleep. Such is life on the road.
I hope to meet some of you tonight in Lakeland.
