Yesterday, after a major supermarket sweep, we headed off to a music sale at a local fire department. WJFF, our town's music station, was raising money, selling CD's, records of many different rpms, sheet music, instruments, and anything music-related. They had thousands of old records. I didn't dare let Marty go by himself.
We hauled off 30 albums, including one by Paul Simon that was minus the vinyl. Didn't check for scratches? I asked incredulously. Marty said that for 17 cents, he didn't care. I selected a few, including a Stevie Wonder album with Braille markings on the cover. Marty stocked up on musicals, James Taylor and the Sullivan County Music Festival 1968 featuring Jeffersonville's Elementary chorus and Livingston Manor High School Band. We'll play it for you next time you come over. You don't want to miss March Mellow or Concertina for Shofar.
Today we went to the a local poultry farm to pick up our turkey. It wasn't ready yet so we enjoyed the beauty of the area on a mild November day. When the young man brought out the bird, it was still warm.
I plan to prepare for Thanksgiving a little at a time. Maybe I'll make cranberry relish tomorrow. We'll see.
