There's just nothing else like it! Here's a collage I put together of my loveable little "throne" at each stop. Can't wait for the next LRS tour!&nbsp;</p>

It's about staying in Seattle for the holidays, with the community I love, for the first time in years (my mom lives in Cali, so to Cali I usually go!). We lit candles, ate home-made Christmas cookies, sipped our coffees, threw sounds on tape, and goofed off in all directions - it was a joyous day.&nbsp;</p>
<p>We didn't have much time to get the recording out into the world before Christmas (and I had no time to get it mastered), so I've gone back and gotten it all fancied up in time for the 2012 holly-days. Now the sound quality will stand up to the rest of your digital catalog and you can spin this bad boy all season long. PLUS, it's only $1!&nbsp;</p>
