Tomorrow afternoon the offspring and I will be heading out on a tri-state road trip. The big kids and I have driven this particular stretch a dozen times and usually plow through all eleven hours at once. This time, however, will be a little different as the ball of never-ending energy just turned one and there is no possible way he would sit in a car that long. I'm planning on breaking the drive up into two days each way and arming myself with good music and yummy snacks to get us through with the same amount of sanity we are starting out with.
It's been too long since I added some new tunes to my collection and I'm really enjoying changing my playlist up a bit. Here's a very short list of some of my must-haves - some new, some old, all necessary:
1. The Weepies / Can't Go Back Now
2. Van Morrison / Into the Mystic
3. The Smiths / Rubber Ring
4. Ray Charles / You Are My Sunshine
5. Parlor Hawk / Every Bone
6. The Doors / Moonlight Drive
7. Other Lives / For 12
8. Drive-By Truckers / The Purgatory Line
9. Neil Young / Helpless
10. Mumford and Sons / Awake My Soul
11. Justin Townes Earle / One More Night in Brooklyn
12. Janis Joplin / Maybe
13. Fleet Foxes / Montezuma
14. The Decemberists / Eli the Barrow Boy
15. The Civil Wars / 20 Years
16. Bruce Springsteen / Nebraska
17. Amos Lee / Violin
18. Alexander / Glimpses
For the bellies: whipped cream cheese and homemade bagels / veggies and hummus / greek yogurt and granola / sandwich wraps in homemade spinach tortillas / bananas and grapes / santa fe trail mix
