I'm happy to be back and share another #adaywithneala. You only have 1 more weekend to check us out [final performance is Sunday, August 16], but follow me, won't you, around Chicago's Northside & Loop before a SOLD-OUT performance in Edgewater. For more [tos] info, head here - and follow me, won't you again, on Instagram @nealabarron!

A moment of zen with my cacti before "I gotta hit the trail" to the show.
