Good morning!
Mason Jennings at the Dakota
Tonight we saw Mason Jennings play at the Dakota. It was a wonderful show with a wide selection of songs from his portfolio. Plus he always had fun stories to share about the songs. He still has such a unique voice. đļ
Tina Schlieske Sextet at Berlin
We made our very first visit to Berlin tonight to see the Tina Schlieske Sextet play. On stage was Tina Schlieske (vocals), Cody McKinney (bass), Pete Hennig (drums), Bryan Nichols (piano), Zacc Harris (guitar), and Brandon Wozniak (saxophone).
Tina has been dipping into jazz and doing jazz focused shows and this show was all jazz in a great jazz venue. They did two one hour sets with a break in the middle. It was all great with the highlight for me being when they did some Frank Sinatra songs. Tina really nails those songs with tons of energy. Her other favorites are Nina Simone and Billie Holiday.
I think they hit every song on the recently released album “The Good Life”. If you like jazz you should give it a listen.

First Time Ice Fishing
I had a lot of fun out ice fishing for the first time tonight. Andy invited Liam, Mike, and I out to his ice house in Piersons Lake for the evening. Mike had also not been ice fishing and living in Texas it was all a new experience. To make sure we got the full experience Andy had us auger holes, just for fun though. I had no idea that ice fishing could involve all this gear. We were fishing by sonar watching our jig float in the water and seeing fish as they came by. Everyone caught some! đŖđ§
Was fun to get to put a hole in 2 feet of ice.
