Katy stayed at our house on Valentine's night so Joe and Pam could have a little time alone. It was the least we could do after they looked after Connor and Lily while Chris and I were in California last month. Of course we don't mind having the little one around, she fits into our family as smoothly as any of the other kids.

But now she's back home and its time for Chris to hit the road as well. He's got a few concert dates in the southwest so with a kiss and a wave, he's back on his bus and heading for the open road.

But the bouquet of tulips he left behind are a sweet reminder that our relationship is back on the right path again. And those bright flowers are also a reminder that he'll be home again very soon with lots of new stories. Gordon and Wayne are back with him for this mini tour, wonder if he'll be able to talk them into working on the new album with him? Wonder if he'll get Roger to produce it or if he'll do what he's been talking about for weeks now and produce it himself?

Guess I'll just have to wait and see. Just like the rest of his fans. And if the forums at his website are any indication, those fans can't wait for new music. Sheesh! The man released a soundtrack album and two other CDs last year and already there's quite the demand for some new tunes. Just goes to show some people are insatiable.

But I know a little about that. I can't wait to hear some new music from him as well.
