This is a special thanks to all the people who hosted us – (us being The Traveling Fates - Bekah, Sooj and Ginger and in some cases just Bekah and Ginger) and therefore made it possible for us to be on the road this past couple of months. This is to the families who gave of their space, food, energy, time, love and support by opening their homes and putting up with us.
There are many lists of thanks that we would like to make. People who made our journey the amazing adventure that it was by helping us with booking, promotion, equipment load in and load out, going to get food, and just whatever else we needed at the time. I hope to get to that list as well. But this one is dedicated especially to those who opened their homes. Here are our hosts and some little things we remember about them, listed by the order that we stayed with them. Bless you all !!!!!

Jackson: Flame, Ryan, and Melanie - kitties and a dragon, beer stash, signs in the yard, pigs in a blanket, FIREFLY!!!, heated tiles on bathroom floor.
