We have a couple of days off and have decided to park in Salt Lake City. We’re at a good exit with tons of stuff to do. I’ll be spending a lot of my time trying to finish up the booking for next season! I still have tons of phone calls to make, emails to write, and contracts to send to people. This is the hardest thing about being on the road and being self-represented. Many people have asked me why we don’t have an agent. I’ve had a couple of agents over the life of our career and they’ve done a fairly good job for us. But, for the most part, I’m still contacting people and making the connections that pull a tour together. No one gives us the kind of attention that I would like to have except me. It’s a lot of hard work but it pays off in the end.
Yesterday was Easter, beautiful drive from Cedar City to Salt Lake City. The mountains around us are incredible and the weather was perfect. I called my Mom and Dad and talked with them as we made the drive. I have the greatest parents in the whole world. I am so blessed to have a Mother and Father who love me and care about what’s happening in my life. I love talking with them and hearing about what they are up to as well. We talked until the battery on my cell phone finally gave out!
Today, there’s been a big change in the weather. It’s cloudy and overcast. As I write this, the clouds are rolling in over the mountains and there is a mixture of rain and snow falling outside. The mountains are supposed to get almost 2 feet! While the valley should only get a dusting.
