Here’s that beautiful bridge I mentioned earlier. My mom and I have been lucky enough to see #calatrava bridges and buildings in several countries and a few states. You can always spot them a mile away. Thanks to @mancamama for introducing so many of us to his work. It has enriched my life. #Dallas #motherdaughterroadtrip #shannonhuntgraduates (at Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge)
You Can be a FiddleStar
I post things about fiddling. And how we can all be better at it.
The Grand Prairie Academy of Fine Arts staged a little pop up dance performance at the base of the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge today. These beautiful girls in front of a beautiful bridge - it was quite a scene upon which we stumbled… Good on you Dallas. #calatrava #gpfaadance #dallas #margarethunthillbridge (at Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge)
My mom and I saw this car in Texas today. She said “That thing looks so stupid! Like one of those bears. A koala bear!” And I said, “You mean a panda bear?” And she said, “Yes! A panda bear! That’s it.” And then she called it Stupid Panda Car for the next 20 miles while laughing hysterically. I love these trips. #motherdaughterroadtrip #shannonhuntgraduates #pandacar (at Frisco, Texas)
You know we love our baseball and we’ll take it anywhere we can get it! #rangersscoreboard #motherdaughterroadtrip #shannonhuntgraduates #grandslam (at Globe Life Park in Arlington)
And here… Shannon Hunt has been a magnificent student. She’s funny, kind, and loves the fiddle in all forms. She has a super crush on Texas Shorty, can play an Ed Haley tune, and knows how to back up a singer in all keys. The fiddling world is safe for another long while. Congratulations on your graduation @oldskoolmusik You are a treasure in our lives. #shannonhuntgraduates #motherdaughterroadtrip #legacychristianacademy (at Stonebriar Community Church)
Ok, so she might be super cool, but the Ray Wylie show at @billybobstexas was a little loud for her. Good music, just a lot of it. #subtle #motherdaughterroadtrip #ftworth #shannonhuntgraduates (at Billy Bob’s Texas)

I like overlooked museums. You know, the B tier stops that people only go to if they have time after they catch the headliners. #Dallas #motherdaughterroadtrip #shannonhuntgraduates #oldred (at Old Red Museum of Dallas County History & Culture)
This is my guy. Happy 4th anniversary to my guy. You changed my world, all for the better. (at Fiddlestar)
One of the classiest bathroom doors in town. These things matter. Be like this door. #fonts #women #nashville @cespeed (at Eighth & Roast)

I am excited to embark on a new chapter of my working life - I recently gave my notice to the Pam Tillis organization and will no longer be touring with her or Lorrie Morgan (on their awesome Grits and Glamour Tour). I must admit, I'm sad to be leaving. It's been an incredible four years and I have learned so much. Thanks to Pam, her amazing husband/manager Matt Spicher, and my bandmates, especially the lovely and talented Mary Sue Englund, with whom I spent more time over the last few years than I did with my husband. And I wouldn't trade a minute of it...
