Thanks Peoria


    Took off yesterday with a good friend of mine to head to Peoria, IL. It's been a long time since I've been to actual Peoria, I'm usually just in the neighborhood for Summer Camp. 

    We checked into our hotel and went to find food. Ended up at Obed & Issac's Microbrewery. They are located in an old church. The food was amazing, the service was amazing, the church gave the restaurant a cool vibe and I highly recommend it. 


    After our late lunch we went back to the hotel and took a little nap before heading to see Gov't Mule and Avett Bros. I haven't seen either band in quite some time and was really impressed with the Avett Bros. Gov't Mule was a bit of a snooze but I expected that. 


    We woke up early to hit the hotels breakfast buffet and now we're full and headed back to Chicago. (I'm not driving) Going to see if I can work for a bit then I'm stopping to see some Phishy friends in Indiana on my way to Kentucky for two nights of Goose and more friends! 

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 ❤️

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 ❤️

Thank you Ft. Collins

   Today was my last full day in Fort Collins for awhile. Tonight is my last night in the place I've called home for the summer. It's been so amazing I'm grabbing my stuff and coming back to stay! It is glorious waking up with mountains daily, not having traffic and being able to make money here.      I started this journey (the summer of Jenn) because after everything went to shit I wasn't really sure what I wanted to do or where I wanted to be. The last two months have given me everything I've been searching for. I have friends that are like family (that I've known for over 15 years) and new friends that will be like family close by. I am sold!      I worked a little today and like every Tuesday I've ever worked anywhere (except for Freeport, IL for some reason) it was super slow. I came home and gathered the rest of the things going with me for the next leg of my journey and cleaned my spaces. There will be someone else staying here...
