My cousin K.C. came to visit Spokane this weekend and we had SO much fun! Steve's station was hosting a spring concert/fundraiser benefitting a terrific children's charity in town. Several "up and coming" artists made their way to Spokane for the two-day event. By far, my favorite of the weekend was
Serena Ryder, who I first had the chance to see on our trip to San Diego in February. She is already a multi award-winning singer in Canada. Her album is just now being released in the States - and I think she is going to be HUGE here too. If you have the chance to see her live in your area...DO IT! Her style reminds me somewhat of a mixture of Melissa Etheridge and Alanis Morisette She is a tiny little thing with a huge voice - and she was nice enough to pose for a photo with me backstage:

Earlier in the day, she and
Paulo Nutini played a short set for a private audience of contest winners at the studio. That was also really cool:

On Sunday, we took K.C. to lunch at a restaurant on Spokane Falls, then walked around Riverfront Park, before taking a drive over to Coeur d'Alene so she could get a quick glimpse of Idaho.


All in all, a very fun couple of days... Our dogs even loved spending time with their Aunt K.C. !
