Dolson November Tour: Day 6 (Charlotte, NC)

Friday morning I woke up early and spent a few hours at Wrightsville Beach. The weather was gorgeous, 70 degrees, and beautifully sunny, perfect for a jog on the beach.

After another visit to my favorite shower/sink I drove the 4 hours to Charlotte to the Evening Muse. This was the best room that I played all week. The sound was perfect, the crowd was attentive, and the other acts on the bill were just fun to hang with. Here’s my buddy Dylan Sneed who got me on the bill for the night.

Yesterday was the long trip back up 77, but I decided to change it up a bit. Rather than drive through the Big Walker Mountain, I decided to drive over the Big Walker Mountain on the Scenic Bypass.

At the top there was this little country store that had a tower. You had to pay $5, but I said, hey, why not support the local economy and get some snapshots from another 80 feet up.


It was freezing up there at 3400 feet, let me tell you.



And a long way down….(I’m not much of a fan of heights mind you)

Then I met a guy who watches birds for a living, and he helped me find a trail on the ridge of the mountain to go for a jog. I was nervous the whole way, it being hunting season and all, that I was going to be mistaken for game and end up stuffed and mounted on someone’s wall.

Since I’m writing this post, I guess it’s obvious that I made it home. I’ll be home all week, perfect timing to see my buddy Andy Osenga at Hudson Community Chapel this Thursday night with Caedmon’s Call.

You should come out to the show.
