400 Miles.

Today has been a busy day for me. I've logged nearly four-hundred miles today round trip, but it was worth it. James, Julie, Brandon, Niki, Josh -- it was absolutely fantastic to see you. I hope we can all be together again in a few weeks for Christmas.

I don't have much to say this evening because I just got home and I'm quite tired, but I will relay a few thoughts that occurred to me while I was driving. I may expand on these ideas later in the week.

• Steel Guitars produce some of the most beautiful music and they're not nearly used enough in modern recordings.
• Driving down back country roads and seeing Christmas lights on homes is very comforting.
• I discovered a lot of great independent musicians in 2014, even though most modern music is over-processed garbage.
• Dreams are important. Don't ever ignore what your dreams are telling you.
• Always give love a chance, no matter what.

And now, I'll leave you with a forgotten ballad classic (and one of my personal favorites) from 1989. Here's Giant, with "I'll See You In My Dreams".
