With the unrelenting triple digit temperatures in Kansas City, Kyle and I are counting the days (ten) until we leave for our NorthWest tour. So being the number geek that I am, and facing a full day of writing, I decided to count a few things first.

Our trip by the numbers:

• 38 days of travel
• 3 shows
• 8 days of showing
• 5,000+ miles of driving
• 82+ hours of driving
• 4 hours before we run out of things to talk about
• 10 states
• 1 province
• 41 feet of vehicle
• 1,230 number of songs we have time to listen to while driving
• 19,595 number of songs we will have with us
• 5,920 elevation of Sun Valley Art Fair
• 60 lineal feet of display space in Art in the Pearl
• 130,000 patrons at Saint Louis Art Fair
• 95 pieces of artwork
• ??? number of days it will take to recover

So many more things I could count today, but for now I need to write 1400 words, to answer 10 questions, to prepare for Artist Inc 2.
