As seemingly always you set a mental video going in my head! And I thank you for that! Sitting in an old family van just to listen to the 8-track it had! Moving from 45s in the upstairs console to my own stereo in my room! Albums like books of poetry--racing home to listen start to finish. Then cassettes and mix tapes! Filling 120 min blanks! Replacing my old transistor with my first Walkman.....guess it’s time to grab my own journal, but hail to your lyricism, Kate. Golllllly! ❤️

We are doing great! Moved to Tennessee. Needed some mountains and lakes. Shake things up! Miss you guys as well!

Oooh. That's great. I moved north for the same reason. It's wonderful. I'm a huge believer in the shake up!
