Except neither crime was as random as we’d...

finally listened to the mix david threw together before we did the corn maze mid-october. didn’t listen to it then since upon departure we found the car we were borrowing had a cassette deck, not a cd drive. it’s a poor substitute for my beau, but the sinatra and john denver, especially, are really nice right now.
