Photo Journal: The Up North Get Away

The Fish House on Lake Superior

Sometimes one just needs a break from the city life.  We, of course, were suppose to spend time this week in Germany in a small Bavarian town where folks still wear traditional clothing and drink beer in shade while celebrating the spring (Maifest).  But, since the volcanic ash of Iceland triggered a world-wide airport shut-down, we decided to go up north instead.

Journeyman Guitar-Players Jam Session at PJ's Barbershop "Cliques"

PJ ~ Owner of Cliques Barbershop

PJ's barbershop "Cliques" is a chilled out spot in Dinkytown to get a reasonably priced and high quality haircut. Besides, its on the University of Minnesota campus, which reminds me of my college years. So, when it was turn to sit in the barber's chair, I give PJ a ring and head over to Cliques.

This time, I was not traveling alone...I brought my Crimson Red Pearl Ovation CK057! Well, it wasn't too long after I my haircut was finished that Ashton - another Journeyman Guitar-Player - showed up and the visit to Cliques turned into a jam session . . .
