Fort Wayne

The past few days have been incredibly relaxing. We've been staying with a wonderful RYFO family in Fort Wayne, IN. They've allowed us to invade their space for a few days while we make the trip to Pennsylvania. Being here has been absolutely wonderful; they have fed us out-of-this-world dinners, let us clean our stinky clothes, taken us to a hockey game, let us decorate Easter eggs with them, and made s'mores with us in their living room fireplace (and that's just naming a few things). It's always an incredible feeling to spend time with families like this and seeing how selfless and giving they are to smelly musicians like us. We feel so grateful to be a part of a network of safe, welcoming families who make us feel at home and who genuinely like developing relationships with us all. We all want to feel accepted and loved- but to actually experience that can be hard on the road. Thankfully, I can speak for the rest of us in saying that we have felt nothing but welcomed, loved, & cared these past few days in rainy Indiana. It's 1:50am right now, so my mind isn't working in its prime condition, but maybe I'll have something more interesting to say next time I share. I apologize for the lack of pictures in this entry- I haven't felt super inspired by the landscape, but I feel like this will change once we hit Pennsylvania. Stay tuned...
