Day 51: Tree's Farm. Middletown, OH. 4-24-08

\\\woke up in a truckstop somewhere in Pennsylvania after putting a small dent in our 566 mile / 9hrs and 20min drive to Ohio...



\\\the drive across Pennsylvania was pretty epic. in length. but also in beauty.



\\\we went through a few tunnels throughout the day



\\\showed up at Tree's Farm by about 4pm... quite the change of pace from the night before...





\\\played inside the barn on the farm. from the minute we showed up it seemed as though we'd landed in heaven. so peaceful. so green. weather was unbelievable. a pace much more like our idaho lives. what a blessing. and the show was super fun. played with locals Tibetan Yeti Hunter, featuring Josh Kettleshake on drums -- an old friend from Moscow. their trumpet player ended up sitting in on a couple of tunes in our set. Very cool scene. definitely a highlight of tour.





\\\the hosts -- Tree, Danny and Mary -- took such good care of us. Tree is a chef and cooked a marvelous dinner and breakfast the next day. the long drive was well worth it. all of us were well rested and recharged for the final stretch of tour as we parted ways with the farm the next morning... thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!

\\\PS here's a little taste of the serenity we tasted on Tree's Farm:
