Musical Interlude

Well, blogging is usually the first thing to go in the evening in that short time between making camp and going to sleep. I promise they will come. In the mean time, I do need to be a content creator. I couldn't pretend to be part of the creative class without it! 

I have a lot of music pop into my head throughout the day, so I thought I'd pass them on to you! I don't think I could embed tracks or anything, but here's a list to get you by! (Have I already devolved into considering listicles as content?!) These are all songs that have found their way into (at times, mind-numbing heavy rotation) into my head. 

• "Blowin' Smoke" Kasey Musgraves
• "Merry Go 'Round" Kasey Musgraves
• "Step Off" Kasey Musgraves 
• "Biscuits" Kasey Musgraves
• (We were listening to a lot of Kasey Musgraves on the drive to Moab.)
• "Take It Easy" The Eagles
• "Rodeo" Garth Brooks
• "Another Christmas Song" Stephen Colbert 
• "Jingle Bell Rock"
• "We'll Meet Again" Johnny Cash
• "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance"
• "When Two Worlds Collide" John Prine & Trisha Yearwood
• "Knock Me Up" Folk Uke

There are plenty of other songs getting stuck in my head, and while they seem like they'll never go away, they get lost in the wind. There's a song I can't pull from the ether as we speak that isn't "Love Hurts," but reminds me of "Love Hurts." Oh well, I'll probably do a few more of these throughout the trip. 

Also! DARK CANYON! Crazy! Get in there quick. If it's ever been on your list, get in there now! When I was at the Needles, Canyonlands backcountry was booked solid the whole time. They were sending people over to Dark Canyon. I don't want to sound like one of those "last one in types," but I think this spot is on the cusp of blowing up, like feels like it'll be getting a multipage spread in "Backpacker" soon.
