Last Friday and Saturday Ruthann and I went to Eugene to celebrate one of her brothers 60th Birthday. We had a good time with him and two more of her brothers, she has four. On Saturday we went out to breakfast with some family and then afterwards three of us went thrift store shopping. We went to Teen Challenge, Goodwill and St Vinnies. I scored two hats, one from my high school and one from Diego Garcia, which is a place I had visited during my time in the US Navy. I also got 4 CDs so we would have something to listen to on the ride home. The big score were the thirty six albums that I got. The two best albums were Edgar Winter Group, They Only Come out at Night and Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy by Elton John. I also got a couple of Keith Green albums, Walter Murphy, Meco and an early Bonnie Raitt. I should be listening to this batch for a while.

I just started listening to LP's again. A little Commodores, Kenny Rogers, BTO, Manilow, and Loverboy? Nice haul.
