It’s the amazing people who take our little town from good to great.
Todd, Casey, and everyone at Sonoma’s Best are some of those people.

It’s hard to believe it’s been 25 years this week since I lost my dad.
Paul Klug grew up on a small farm in South Dakota, moved to Grand Forks North Dakota, spent 30 years working for Coca-Cola, and moonlighted as a taxidermist.
He never talked politics, never seemed to have a bad day, and had no time for negativity.
He was all about the outdoors, sports, laughter, and loving the people around him. He just made life better.
I know he would have loved meeting all the incredible people who’ve become part of my life over the past 25 years — and I know every one of you would’ve loved laughing with him.
I’m not sure what I was responding to on September 30, 1999, but this was my very first email to Matt. I know because he printed out the first two years of our email correspondence as Writer/Art Director partners at McCann-Erickson—and gave it to me as a gift two years into our relationship.
Today we’ve been married 20 years (!!!), which I can’t quite wrap my head around. Even wilder is remembering that I once considered telling my favorite person no. Matt is the one who’s taught me how to say YES—and life is so much better for it.
Here’s to more infinite yeses ❤️ @mklug
Chasin’ Butterflies just played in its last film festival, which bookends a year of traveling to beautiful theaters, exploring new towns, and making new friendships along the way.
Thanks to everyone who’s been part of the ride.
Driven by my passion for music and art, I formed a band of cassettes with friends @joshua_harding & @patrick_himself .

I never thought I’d creative direct or produce a record, but today I can say I’ve checked it from my bucket list. What a wild and wonderful learning journey it’s been. And I’m thrilled to share it with you. Check it out on museumofwonder.com > Shop > Record

Those of us who collaborated on the documentary, “Chasin’ Butterflies: The Art of Being Butch Anthony” had an idea to share even more of Butch’s stories with the world. And that manifested into Butch telling original tales into a microphone that we set to a two-sided soundtrack, and worked with Butch to produce what is now a piece of art you can sit back and not only look at but listen to. The record also includes a link to our documentary.
