Fayther and Dayter

GIANT POST!!!!!

Yes, I know I've been VERY lax at updating my blog. So here's a giant post of photos from our recent trips to Toronto and Chcago, and my recent gig at the Blue Note.

Toronto was great as usual, but we were there when they had near record heat. The heat index hit 120!!! I also discovered Poutine (see photos). We saw way too many places/people/things to post here. Leslie and Kevin were fantastic hosts. Wayne Gretzky's has my favorite desert on the planet (see photos). Of special note are the clones of Julie and Helen at the pool at our hotel. Papa, Leslie, and I were sitting at a table and to my left was Julie, and to my right was Helen (see photos).

Ok, the trip to Chi Town was interesting to say the least. Read Barb's blog for the details. We weren't allowed to have cameras at the PGA championship and the ones I took at the Field Museum didn't come out very well, so no Chicago pics... SORRY!

Wow! What a fun gig!!! We were the headliners on a saturday night. "Brother Bagman" opened for us. The whole thing was filmed so I'll have a DVD if anyone gets bored enough to want to watch it. I think we did pretty good for a bunch of old guys...

OK, enough text. Here's the pics:

The Blue Note photos wouldn't upload, so I had to do this separate post...
