we're back

[jfb]

NW part of the tour is over. We've still got one show in LA near the end of the month. I won't be reading the LJ backlog from last week.

Best things about the tour:

• spending time with Kate
  
• everything about Portland except Voodoo Doughnut
  
• June Madrona's yurt
  
• Voodoo Doughnut (in Portland), which deserves its own list item

Worst thing about the tour was probably the, you know, tour. Oh well.

Last night we embarked on a two-week vegan experiment (did I mention the vegan pirate restaurant? in Portland?). Actually we'll be "beegans"--we talked it over and we just don't have any compunctions about eating honey. Or bees, I guess, except, gross. Anyway, if anyone has some vegan food tips or recommendations, toss them my way.
