Godspell National Tour: Week 10

It's the end of Week 10 on the Godspell National Tour.  I was feeling a little more homesick than usual these past few days.  We travel more than we perform, have no home cooking, sleep in different beds almost every night and live out of our suitcases.  Add to that the obvious difficulty of being apart from loved ones for so long, and you can see how even an extraordinary experience such as this can take it's toll. But that's just it. Touring is an EXTRAORDINARY experience.  It has it's cost, but it is unlike anything else I've ever done. And Lord knows, it's everything I've ever wanted to do. And it's Godspell. And it's us. :-)

Party? Always.

Last week, I left off telling you about our time in Milwaukee. We celebrated our 100th performance of Godspell there! 

Our 100th Godspell Intermission :-)

Then it was off to British Columbia. Although I've never been to the province before, it was still kind of like being home, just being on Canadian soil. We flew into Vancouver, arriving quite late on Monday night and drove to the city of Vernon on Tuesday morning. The long bus ride took us through the mountains and treated us to breathtaking views. Like these:

We performed at the Vernon & District Performing Arts Centre shortly after arriving on Tuesday night, and all too soon, our trip to BC came to a close. There's been so many great city stops on this tour, but this is definitely one that I'll be revisiting on my own in the near future.

Wednesday morning we had another long drive to Seattle. We spent a night there before flying to Rapid City, South Dakota the next day. And here we are! In the most beautiful boutique hotel with uniquely decorated rooms. Life ain't so bad...

We had our first show here in South Dakota already, at the Rushmore Plaza Civic Centre. Fun times! The crowd had as much energy as we did, so it was a beautiful exchange. We get to do it to the South Dakotans (Dakotians? Dakoes?) twice more with two shows and then... TEXAS!!!

You know what to do. See you next week, right here ! Love to all those who care enough about us to keep on following along! We'll be home soon...
