Well, it’s been a very busy Summer for me so I have not posted for a while. Trying to play a vinyl record when temperatures were hitting nearly 40 degrees was not on my mind really, but now the nights are drawing in it’s time to dig out the vinyl again. In fact, I have… Continue reading Moving Home Sale!
