Trip to Hot Springs, Arkansas

I (Audrey) recently took a trip down to Hot Springs, Arkansas to begin researching a documentary film I am making. I met my mother (whom the film is partially about) down there and we spent 5 days digging up the past, eating fried catfish and barbecue, bathing in hot springs and soaking up the vibe of this little town, and I have to say- I am in love with the history and old Americana feel of Hot Springs. Here are a couple of photos from the trip, the rest are on Mark’s Flickr page. I will be posting more about this project in the months (and years?) to come, I may even create a separate blog for the film, but I will keep everyone POSTED. Ha ha. Pun intended.

My pal Becky digs my music blog and my thoughts on social media marketing so she wrangled me into sitting on a panel discussion at this conference the folks behind the Grammy Awards are hosting next weekend. If you’re into music, web 2.0 or marketing in general you might wanna come check this out. My panel is called “Music 2.0: The Umbrella – Digital Sales, New Outlets, Viral Marketing, Blogging…”.

An Homage to Ron Burgundy (the car)

[Note: Audrey's gonna write her own posts on The Poverty Jet Set now, too! Hurray!]

Today my trusty steed, Ron Burgundy, was towed away to rest his rusty bones in some kind of junkyard. Yes, my burgundy 1994, four-door Oldsmobile had a name, and he served me well. We shared many moments together. Mark and I were with Ron when he hit 100,000 on the odometer back on our road trip last winter. Here, you can watch for yourself…

All I have left to remember him by are these videos and this I BRAKE FOR GOLF COURSES plate cover. Heh. Adios, Ron.
