Brandi Carlile
Some more Brandi Carlile for you today…
Brandi Carlile at Britt Festival
I took these photos from several rows back of the stage. Brandi tossed one of her guitar picks straight at me for a bonus souvenir on top of the photos.

Brandi Carlile performs in Jacksonville, Oregon
LodeStar Bar in Jacksonville
Different season, same time of night as this prior photo for this beautiful building (historic Redmen’s Hall — circa 1884) in Jacksonville. If you look really closely you can see Allison and Victor playing inside.
Lake of the Woods, Southern Oregon
Another photo from the archives today… This one is from June of 2009. I took this picture (with my LX3) just before taking the one featured here.
Mt. Hood from an airplane
On my way back to Ashland from Europe on Sunday the plane spent very little time over water. We went over Greenland, Canada, and didn’t enter U.S. airspace until the state of Washington. We came south from there to land in Portland. This was the view of Mt. Hood shortly before landing. I think the water you see in this photo is the Columbia River.
Unfortunately, I didn’t have a window seat on the flight from Portland to Medford.

Some more Brandi photos from last month in Jacksonville…

Brandi whispers in Josh Neumann's ear
This isn't the end. I have more. 😉
I spotted these containers in Butte Creek Mill along with a ton of other antiques. The swastika was actually a very popular symbol before Hitler and the Nazis made it infamous. I’m guessing that means these biscuit tins are pre-1935. Care for a swastika biscuit from Portland, Oregon?
Placing half-mast Danish flags on Christiansborg Palace
I have been in Scandinavia the past month, spending most of my time in Copenhagen but also visiting Sweden and Norway. I was in Oslo just five days before Friday’s tragedy. Now I’m back in Copenhagen, where I witnessed the placing of these half-mast Denmark flags on the Christiansborg Palace tower yesterday to memorialize those lives lost in Norway the day before.
Wrapping up this short series from Bigham’s Knoll in Jacksonville, here is the view of Mt. McLoughlin (the point covered in snow) from the top of the bell tower. Note that you normally can’t just walk up some stairs to the bell tower. I have connections. 😉
The interior of the aforementioned Frau Kemmling Schoolhaus in Jacksonville is nice, nicer still when it is full of people having a good time. The books on the wall are leftovers from when this was the Jacksonville School House on Bigham’s Knoll.
My German skills are weak, to say the least, but I’m pretty sure the sign reads Schoolhouse Brewery. This is the fairly new home of a German restaurant in Jacksonville, Frau Kemmling Schoolhaus. The building was previously a school; now the upper two floor are an unrelated business with a brewery/restaurant on the bottom floor. I had lunch at Frau Kemmling Schoolhaus for the first time recently and the food and beer were both excellent.
