I’m writing this post on a tour bus in Albert Lea, Minnesota. It’s our “green room” for the evening. I feel silly even typing that out. It sounds so rockstar.
It’s quite the bus. The owner, who is sitting right outside (watching a TV that is on the OUTSIDE of the INSIDE of the bus…I know, it’s confusing), says it’s the same kind of bus Dolly Parton and Reba McEntire use. Well, by George…
He also inserted that it’s a $1.1 million bus.
Indigo just asked if he could go big one in there. Yes, you can. Indigo says it’s kinda weird that the toilet paper is inside the cupboard. Yes, it is.
My kids want to live on this bus. I wouldn’t mind either. Although, I’d have to completely redo it. It’s kind of…shall we say…gaudy…in an awesome sort of way.
The pictures are going to be stinky because there are mirrors and windows everywhere and I don’t know the trick to photographing those…but, you’ll get the idea.
Past that bathroom is the bedroom…it’s a big puppy.
When I was little, I wanted to live in a campa (camper)…it was my lifelong dream to live in a campa and I think I’ve never fully gotten over that. No, I don’t want to actually camp, don’t be silly…I just like the thought of reclining as I travel. And rummaging through the kitchen to get a snack out on Hwy 35.
You never know when you might need to look at yourself mid-dream…
Nate’s headlining an event tonight…a community concert outside with a combination of churches around town.
We’ve gotten spoiled a bit…good food, the bus…our own port-a-potty. How ’bout that? Two days in a row/port-a-potties. God, are you trying to tell me something? Hmm…not sure what that would be…moving right along.
A little pre-concert fun…
We just wanna hang on the bus…this is our nephew, Chris, with Greyley…can you tell they’re cousins? By the way, Chris is Andrew’s brother, who you met in yesterday’s blog.
Nate’s band for the night: Aaron Ankrum/electric guitar, Nate/vocals & acoustic guitar, Chris Brown/drums, Matt Patrick/bass, Billy Steele/keys.
Trainin’ them up right…Indie carrying gear when the night is over…
And now we’re off to the Country Inn like good little rockstars.
Good-night, folks!
