    I Lost Another Piece of Home Last Week

    September 9, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Many of us have places that we grew up in, places that feel like home outside of our home. Places that hold a special place in our hearts, that are filled with special memories. Places that feel safe even if it doesn't make sense to anyone else.

    ullhead City, Arizona is a community located directly across the Colorado River from Laughlin, Nevada and not too far from Needles, California. For those of you that still don't know what I'm talking about, it is about 90 miles south of Las Vegas. It is also a major part of my childhood.

    And then there is Colima Burgers. And as cheesy and dramatic as it sounds, I mean this will all sincerity, since coming back to California, walking into Colima Burgers has felt like coming home each and every time. Colima Burgers is a family run greasy spoon that I have gone to all my life.

    New York Pizza

    I was little, it was while I was still in elementary. I have always been a HUGE shave ice fan. I was home with a babysitter, which in my mind was rare. I feel like for most of my childhood, my dad was usually the one home with me and if I did need to be watched 90% of the time I'd either be with my brother and/or his wife or with my dad's best friend's family. Anyways, I digress, this day I was home with a babysitter, possibly my cousin or my future niece (another story), and my dad came home with a shave ice!

10.29.2025 Jason Mraz at the Fox Performing Arts C 10.29.2025 Jason Mraz at the Fox Performing Arts Center in Riverside, CA

20+ years and I finally got to see @jason_mraz live. Been a fan since "The Remedy" and seeing him live was such a special experience. 

He's an artist I don't get to talk about much and don't share him with others the way I do some of my other favorite musicians. But he's always held a very special place in my heart and has gotten me through a lot over the years. 

He was also one of the few artists my dad and I were able to bond over. I remember one road trip specifically we only listened to Jason's debut album Waiting for my Rocket to Come, on repeat, for all 8 hours.
