Field of Dreams


Today I went to the set of Field of dreams. It was a pretty cool experience. I researched all of it online and knew I was going to make it there at some point while out here and then realized it was only 15 minutes away from where I was, so off I went! It is free to walk the field (according to their website) but when I got there the sign said "$20 suggested donation" I had $5 cash on me. The adorable elderly gentleman that came out of his booth told me that was fine, told me everything he knew about the place, making me laugh quite a bit and gave me a bumper sticker anyway.


Also talked to my good friend down in Kentucky for three hours today. I'll be getting to see him and his lovely fiancé at the end of June. I mentioned that I was blogging my summer and asked if I should include all the trouble I get into knowing my mother is reading. His answer was "She knows you and that's what we all want to read anyway!" That gave me a good laugh.

Went to the new restaurant in Stockton last night for dinner and it was great. We actually ended up going back for breakfast this morning and I think I'm just going to eat all my meals there while I'm in town. It's called Stockton Pit Stop and I highly recommend it if you're ever in this area.


I had the taco salad and then my friends dog ate my left overs which made me sad but I'll survive. 

Tomorrow morning I head back to Chicago for a few days before I hit the East Coast for the weekend. 

New Ekoostic Hookha live album dropped today. Didn't think I'd have to listen to them ever again, but I did, and I enjoyed it. It actually met my mood for the day pretty well. 

Much love ❤️

A little Phish

    Spent a weekend at Deer Creek with so many friends! A great time was had and I'm looking forward to this weekend in Bethel, even if it's going to be a wet one!      After Phish I ended up in Ohio for a few days. Spent a lot of time outside and laughing with some of my favorites. Tomorrow I'm back on the road again. I'll be crossing off another state from my list, working, camping and checking things out. I made sure to give myself plenty of time for all of that in-between shows.  Much love ❤️

Summer of Jenn 2

    Started off Summer of Jenn 2 with a short trip to one of my favorite venues to see one of my favorite bands (moe.) play an amazing show with some amazing friends!      I was going to take a quick disco nap and head straight from Dillon to Chicago but my car has been burning oil and my roommate insisted I get it fixed before I drive across the country. $600 later and I was told to just get a new car. Thanks... I guess I got new spark plugs too but I could've done that myself.      I'm a day behind on travel so I decided to do the drive over night. Haven't really done that before, I usually leave around 2am. Wish me luck!  Much love ❤️

Skipping Stones

    Yesterday was an amazing day! We swam at Salt Creek in the tiny town of Richmond Dale (population 300). I learned how to skip rocks, we caught crayfish and played in the small waterfall. After we went back to a friend's house until way too late and played Foosball, air hockey and pool. We laughed and laughed. One of the guys there is a mechanic. I went back today with the car and almost caught a break! The part that will fix all my problems is only $25. SCORE! But no one in town has it in stock and I need to leave Saturday morning. Hoping I can find it somewhere tomorrow 🤞              After dealing with all that today I went and visited my friend at the brewery they work at. Had some awesome food and drink and then came back to the house. I am beat. Hopefully everything works out with the car tomorrow and I can be on my way to a very very busy Saturday with stops in Hammond, Chicago, the suburbs and a wedding out...
