Basically, this time change thing is messing me up...

I had a long list of things to do, but instead me & Brianna

spent the entire day taking a long long walk through the

woods next to the Cahaba River and then exploring a small

neighborhood of abandoned houses, which was amazingly fun

and creepy all at the same time! Brianna took most of the photos

below, but I took some ... we decided that going to sacred / secret

places in the woods, etc is kind of like our version of going to

church, cuz it felt so "special" and "holy" in a way ... what's funny

is that the trail we were walking on ended by this enormous hill and just over that hill was some big expensive church ... uncanny ...

Later at Bottletree, I saw part of a Charlie Chaplin film 

and it showed him wandering around in a field 

and then the text read:

His church, the sky

His altar, the landscape

and i thought "Exactly!" haha ...

In highschool, my dearest friend and sister (even to this day!) 

Elise and I would go on long walks after school and have awesome 

adventures very much like the ones Brianna have been going on 

recently ... and so I'd like to dedicate the above mix to both of them 

for sharing such glowing experiences with me.

 HERE is the 1st installment of my Mystery Records mixes ... if a thriftstore has vinyl, I usually search through it and the records I buy end up in the "thriftstore section" of my record shelf ...these particular records I don't listen to very often (they are a bit like the vinyl version of the Island Of Misfit Toys), so making these mixes not only gives me a chance to randomly select and explore my purchases, it makes these old rejected records feel loved and wanted!
