The WAMJam Girls in a benefit performance at Adair's in Dallas TX in the Spring of 2005. Left to right: Annie, Susan, Reba, Stephani, Bridget, Lisa and Jenni getting some laughs. WAMJam is the Women's Acoustic Music Jam held periodically in Dallas.

Bliss by guitar. Our friend Alan plays a beautiful song at a Fall 2004 Rancho Frijole camp out. The rancho near Wills Point TX is a very special place tended by another wonderful friend, Linnie.

Driving across the vast Texas outback on the way to Chinati Hot Springs via Pinto Canyon Road west of Marfa. Chinati Peak is in the distance. We visited this one of our favorite places on Earth in late 2004.

Here we're standing on a cliff by the Rio Grande in Big Bend National Park around Christmas 2003. Jenni and I camped in the high desert at a place called Rice Tank which had provided water to livestock belonging to early settlers in the 1920s. One night a huge North wind came in howling like a banshee. Already gone to bed we heard the storm approach but soon realized the high tank levee behind our camp provided the perfect diversion and sent the gale high overhead. We slept cozy and warm completely untouched by the wild arctic blast. In the morning a thick coat of ice topped the water jug but soon it was brilliantly sunny and warm again.

My brother's daughter Emily with Jenni on the shore of Lake Michigan. Emily and David were married that day in June 2003 on the beach with many friends and family members in attendance. That was two weeks after Jenni and I were married in Texas.

Jenni at Lake Mineral Wells TX in 2003. There seems to be some kind of waveform emanating from her outstretched fingertips. We used this photo for her 2004 "Flood" Song Album Cover.
