A Playlist For Our Current Situation

Music is one of my loves. I am constantly searching out new music, listening to music almost every chance I get. This spring I had a full list of concerts that have now been postponed. Against Me!, Tiny Moving Parts, Deafheaven, Grouplove, Band of Horses, The Milk Carton Kids, Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, Tegan and Sara, Jimmy Eat World, Turnover.  Yes, it was to be a very busy spring and summer of live shows.

Now I am working from home listening to music much the same way I would while I was at work. So I decided to start a playlist of songs. What songs should be added to the playlist?

After more than 2,800 miles on that bike since last June, it needed some more work. The headset was pretty much shot and would not be repaired in time for our planned trip to Virginia.

We found a place to stay that was literally steps away from The Virginia Creeper Trail . Saturday was to be a day we went hiking at Grayson Highlands State Park . We met Gina's co-workers at the park just after 10:00 am and started our hike. We have camped at this park before with the Boy Scouts but have never ...

Well, it's been nearly a year since my last blog post . Fittingly that was about my then new turntable. Ever since I received that wonderful gift I have been increasing my collection of vinyl records. This year when the list of records was released for Record Store Day I became very excited.

This is what makes this day so special to someone like me.  I started my Saturday, April 13, 2019, at 4:00am. I arrived at the first store of the day, Schoolkids Records , there was already a sub...
