Homecoming

Tonight when I got home I was greeted by my dog and toddler with lots of licks and drool. From both of them. Toddler licked me to greet me. I think he needs more time around humans....

Here's a drawing of a Toucan from today I'm proud of.

Also started working on a model build today. Pretty excited to try building one! 

The red album

So this is the first record I remember loving, and the one that introduced me to The Beatles. When I was little I got a record player from my moms friend and then borrowed this record from my local library. I played the shit out of that record, and even copied a recording on a cassette so I could listen to it on my Walkman. 

It would be years later when taking a Beatles guitar course that I would learn that the red album had more songs in it - So unbeknownst to me, a whole vinyl was missing from the set at the library. 

Now, years later, I got a record player for Christmas. What's the 1st album I buy? A new copy of The Red Album- which the record store happened to just get in the day before.

So in the last day of 2015 I'll be listening to a fresh pressed copy of an old album, in complete order, for the first time.

Merry Christmas!
