The City that Never Steeps – New York City, NY
A dream has come true. For years, even prior to Occupy, I had a dream of serving tea on Wall St, and another of being featured in the New York Times. Upon arriving in New York City, I realized the first dream was an impossibility due to lack of parking on Wall St. The second…

Autumn Update – Square Pond, ME
Ah, another season is upon us. I can feel the Fall in the air, and I think I’m ready for it. Our summer has been interesting and fun. After arriving New England for the International Herb Symposium in June, Ally, Edna (the teabus), and I were excited to explore a little of the Northeast.…

Steepless in Seattle – Seattle, WA
No, not really, I guess. We weren’t steepless at all. More like steepfull. We pretty much served tea all weekend here. I contacted my friend Pepper Proud upon arrival and asked what was happening and where would there be people who might like tea. The first night, Friday, her and I went out to Ballard…

In the Studio with Elephant Revival – Woodinville, WA
Bear Creek Studio is a paradise for musicians. This live-in recording studio was built out of an old barn buried in the forest northeast of Seattle on a small creek. Edna and I were lucky enough to spend two weeks there. In building a relationship with Elephant Revival over the past 6 years, we…

Welcome Home – San Juan Islands, WA
Earlier this month, Edna and I arrived in the land and amongst the community that raised me. With horse trailer (mobile shop/salvaged building material storage) in tow, we boarded the all-so-familiar ferry from Anacortes to Friday Harbor. Ahhh, the well-known streets and trees, smells and sounds – with a flavor of new buildings, fresh faces,…

Colorado – First Trip off the West Coast
I think it’s safe to say the Edna’s first voyage off of the west coast was due to love. I fell in love with a woman 6 years ago, and re-fell in love with her over a year ago. She is beautiful, talented, and independent. Her care with the tea bus and my health and…

On the Road to the Oregon Country Fair – CA, OR
I left Northern California with so much joy to give and tea to share with people. I arrived Ashland and served tea all afternoon in the park after getting some tea donations from Eco Teas and Adelante! Gallery and Tea House. Great people, all day. When it came time to head over to the Elephant…
