My Dad was a freelance concert photographer for a few years in St. Louis in the late 70s.

During COVID I finally started digitally converting a bunch of his slides.

This is my favorite shot of Springsteen of his and until now probably only a handful of people had ever seen it.

Very excited to try out new cleaning supplies from #goodstore.

Immediately makes it clear that I’ve been paying a lot for mostly water.

Finally made it out to the Dandelion for a Sunday dinner after #paxunplugged and it exactly what I wanted. Perfect end to a great weekend.

German Festival Near the Hotel: “There’s a guy here making fresh stroopwaffle that you can smell from a block away.”

Made it to Philly for our annual #paxunplugged trip. View from the hotel is a nice look down everything going on near City Hall.
