Death Valley

“Valley of Death”

Inspired by Death Valley National Park, January 2016. I was a little surprised how much I enjoyed Death Valley National Park. I was taking advantage of being relatively nearby in Las Vegas for CES with a free weekend and didn’t really know much about it going in. Continue reading “Valley of Death”

“Ice Bat”

NPT006: Inspired by Cuyahoga Valley National Park, September 2014. I visited Cuyahoga Valley National Park while on tour with Royal Holland between dates in Cleveland and Canton, OH in September 2014. During our brief visit I saw that Ice Box Cave was closed to help prevent the spread of white-nose syndrome (WNS), a disease of cave-hibernating bats caused by a fungus. Continue reading “Ice Bat”

“Oh Bear”

NPT005: Inspired by Glacier National Park, July 2014. I went on a solo trip to Glacier and was ignoring all the warnings about hiking alone in bear country but then realized how stupid that was and got paranoid. One of the things they say to do is make noise so that you don’t sneak up on them by accident and scare them. Some people wear bear bells. I decided to work on this song. Continue reading “Oh Bear”
