I've lived away from home for a long time. Salt Lake City is that home. I wrote this piece after one of my countless 12 hour drives to see my family for the holidays.

This song really gets to me, especially when I'm feeling a little melancholy for my family. After time, however, I've come to play it for the purpose of getting to a calm, peaceful state. I can close my eyes and think of all of the things that bring me happiness. One of those images is visiting the river that I used to fish frequently.

You don't need to physically be in a place to feel like you are there. Hence the old saying "home is where the heart is".
