Old Is New

While the boys were down at the corner store, I put an album on the turntable. (Funny thing about having a lot of time on your hands: playing albums on the turntable seems so doable again.)

So I put on an album and turned the volume way up so I could hear it in the kitchen as I ate a plum. And the volume was loud enough that I didn't hear the front door open and close when the boys came home.

And as I came back into the living room, as I walked around the corner, I saw Stuart standing there in front of the turntable, mesmerized by the vinyl turning around and around. I walked up and stood next to him.

I'm just watching it, he said. Amazing how those things work.
