They would have preferred March (which, it turns out, wouldn't have been any better for weather in 2009), but January was the best timing for Colleen's newspaper work, so they started contacting friends and churches to put together an itinerary for the Minus 40 Tour.
Drawn together by quirky style, fascinating vocabulary, and thoughtful creativity, Dara and Colleen first started collaborating on songwriting projects at Arlington Beach Camp.
