California Day 10 (really Fort Collins, CO)

Yesterday was yet another great day on this trip. I spent time walking along a beautiful river with my friend Karissa (after we all slept in, which was awesome) and then made it to the big REI store.

For some reason, I feel the need to go to REI every year. And almost every year I buy a new water bottle. I really don't know what the deal is with that, but I decided to share.

Then we all took off for Fort Collins, where my friend, Christy lives.

Christy and I reconnected on my tour last year (we went to college together), and I'm so happy that we get to spend time together.

Her family is awesome, she lives in a beautiful spot, and we always have a great visit.

This morning I'm singing at the church where she works. We'll be doing some sing-alongs (one of Pete's), and I'll perform some of my songs before heading back off to Denver!

Have a beautiful long weekend, Kristen

Vermont, jogging and Grace Potter

I'm up in Vermont for the weekend with a bunch of shows. Tonight I don't play until 9 at Radio Bean, so I had time today to get some work done and go for a jog. I love jogging in new towns because it gives me a chance to stop and see things that I'd blow past if I were driving.

And though I'm very agains running with my phone, today I brought it along because I wanted to make sure that I could take a picture if I saw a moose!

It was a moose-less jog, but it was amazing, so I'm glad I broke my rule and had my phone along.

After I was done, and the rain had stopped, I hung out in the park to record a video of me singing a Grace Potter song. I hope you enjoy!

Have a great weekend, Kristen

He's no moose, but it was still cool to bump into turtle man!

Hope you enjoy the song!
