Folktography.

A few weeks back, the Falling Whistles house had their last "Summer Thursday." Granted, it was two days past the first day of fall, but who's really concerned with details of that nature. To properly say goodbye to all things beach and free and to welcome the much anticipated autumn vibe, Sean Carasso invited his friend (and now mine) David Ramirez to play at the house. David and his lovely lovely girlfriend Paige were on their way back from a west coast tour of sorts. They teamed up with their respected crafts, David with his music and Paige with her photography and conquered California and Oregon. About a month ago when my twin roommates Lauren and Whitney had their birthday party, the two were just starting their tour. David played at the birthday bash and Paige set up an exquisite photo booth at the celebration location. Grand times indeed and the love birds stayed at our house the whole weekend. I got the opportunity to get to know them and found myself savoring every second I had with these two. I hate saying the old cliche "I feel like I've known them forever" but to put it plainly, it was as if Paige embodied a few of my favorite friends from different chapters of my life. She was such a great mix of all the things I love; wit, smarts, talent, creativity and an ultra laid-back persona. David was equally as funny and I felt like I had an immediate connection with him, we really just spoke each others language. I love when humor is easy. When everything is just seamless. My friend Jon Carr is moving to Austin in about a month. I'm thinking that a trip out in January is in order. Yusssss.

Here is a cute little promotional vid of David and Paige for their west coast "tour."
