I'll be the first to admit I may have been a bit overzealous when I started my series covering three songs from each state in the United States. It seems like it

Goodbye June

You might recall this past Spring, my wife and I were supposed to make a trip down to North Carolina. Unfortunately, due to some circumstances out of our control,

State of Mind

Typically, by the time Tuesday rolls around I have spent a lot of time on Monday trying to figure out what songs I am going to use for my #threetunetuesday post

Close, but not quite

New Mexico is another one of those states that I have never visited. I've been to three of the four states it touches, but I have never been to the state itself.

The "New" States

"On the shores of Gitche Gumee"

It's been a long long time since I have been to Minnesota. I remember when I was much younger, my parents decided to do the Lake Superior circle tour. In case you

Given the fact that I haven't been to Massachusetts since I was a little kid, I knew it was going to be a struggle to find photos for this post. Since all of my

Detour Ahead

As far as I was concerned we were heading to Massachusetts this week for the continuation of our auditory excursion for #threetunetuesday sponsored by @ablaze. Then

A "Maine" Squeeze

A couple weeks ago I wrote a post about Kentucky, and in that post I pontificated on the fact that there are some places that just draw you back to them. You might

Down on the Bayou

This is another one of those weeks where the theme of my #threetunetuesday post sponsored by @ablaze is a little difficult for me. If you have been following along,

Bluegrass State of Mind

I can still remember one of the first times I ever visited Kentucky. We were heading down to Oklahoma to visit one of my dad's old buddies from the Navy and we stopped

We're not in Kansas anymore...

It's pretty easy to find photos and inspiration for the middle of America states as they come up in my weekly series for #threetunetuesday sponsored by @ablaze.
