Memories ;D

Good Morning, SWR,
I just went out and checked that little hibiscus I have been writing about here. That girl is lookin' good this morning. There are 9 blooms coming on. Maybe it was the country music I play while gardening. But I bet a little Wagner would really do the trick. (I am saying, "Vagner," you know.)
And, oh yes, I remember records. I know about the 33 & 1/3's and about the 78's. But what I really remember -- those 45's. I used to save my allowance and wait until I could find them 3 for a dollar. (Whoops! Uh oh! It's early. Er, about those 45's -- My mommy had to push me in my stroller to go buy them. Yeah. Uh, huh. That's it.)
Maybe I will try some classical music on my little hibiscus. But SWR, if she starts behaving badly again, I may just have to crank up a little Tchaikovsky. The "1812 Overture" comes to mind.
