On the Road Again

Ella is navigating the way to our favorite camping haunt in Round Top, Texas.

Destination reached. Below is a peek at what happens during our stay...

Heading up the stairs to enjoy the "King of Swing" Asleep At the Wheel in the Stone Cellar Dancehall.

A lot of daddy/daughter dancing and twirling took place. Books were read. Volunteer work was done--leaving the soggy earth a little less cluttered. Games were played, trees were climbed, music was made, fun was had.

I'd call that a successful road trip!

"Traditions, traditions. Without our road trips, our lives would be as shaky as...as a fiddler [in the tree]."

This little fiddler is being featured in The Polka News and is credited for photos taken during the Asleep at the Wheel concert;). Stay tuned...

Thank you, Gary McKee with Texas Polka News, for always making our little one feel loved.

Headed down the unassuming road between Houston and Austin that is as quiet and undisturbed as the cow pastures it cuts through. Destination: a colorful community centered around antiques, lifestyle, history, and culture--and mom's favorite place of respite.

Thank you Gary McKee for making Ella feel so welcomed--and including her on Polkabeat.com https://www.flickr.com/photos/polkabeat/sets 2015 2nd Fiddle Festival. It's fun for little ones to see themselves in pictures;).

Instramentalist/musician extraordinaire, Mark Rubin http://www.markrubin.com/Markrubin.com/Home.html, inviting Ella to play a song for him. He shared stories with her about his mentor, Itzhak Perlman http://www.itzhakperlman.com, and commented to her "your form is better than mine."

Thank you Mrs. Meghan and Mr. Koko for always focusing on the importance of good form;).
