On another note, "Radiate", is the default music background we have set for iPhoto. We show photos to Anna (3 year old daughter) regularly and she now can kind of sing along with the song. Looking forward to the upcoming album. But wouldn’t Genevieve have a French accent?

LOTL is now in the regular rotation for dinner music. The funny part is the first line of the first song "I Know the Mountains". We're just sitting down to eat when we hear "Don't drink the water..." I crack up every time! P.S. Thanks for the Nuvi recommendations. Funny story from Land of the Living:

My wife and I just borrowed her dad's new Garmin (same model as yours, I think) for the first time last week and it was an amazing experience. And there's no hyperbole in that "amazing". It's become one of my favorite pieces of gadgetry overnight, and I don't even own one (yet). I'm sure there's a lot of people who've been using them for quite a while, but I thought it was pretty cool when we took a family vacation last weekend to punch in our destination and have "Genevieve" calmly and flawlessly handle the navigational duties. Also, on a totally different note, I'm looking forward to the new album, whenever that may arrive. Like Rob, I'm relatively new to Land of the Living (I heard, and loved it--for the first time last year) and am waiting with anxious ears for the next installment of songs. Eric,

We just discovered "Land of the Living" - our very first EP purchase. Great stuff. We've been fans of the Andy's (Peterson, Gullahorn, and Osenga) for years. Just never took a chance on your music. What a treasure "Land of the Living" is. I'm looking forward to purchasing more soon and hopefully helping out with a donation towards your new project. P.S.

My wife mentioned buying one for me this Christmas, but I talked her out of it. I struggled to rationalize paying for such a device when you can pull up directions for free on the inter-web. But now you have me reconsidering... again... Just curious which brand/model you have. Thanks! Is Genevieve a Garmin, as shown in the photo?
