I tried and failed to visit the donkey sanctuary many times. It’s only open on Sundays. We did go to the beach, and visit friends.  I got a ton of stuff. I received (at the end of June) and painted (1 main box only) of Tablescapes terrain by Secret Weapon Miniatures.

I also received

Children of the Field folk horror minis

I got books…

I renewed my Undertow (paperback) subscription and got a few books same week

Shadows and Tall Trees 7 (which won a Shirley Jackson!)

Priya Sharma – All the Fabulous Beasts

Margaret Murray – Witchcraft Through the Ages used a gift card at the Monkey’s Paw

Alexander Roob – Alchemy & Mysticism for 5$!

Jayaprakash Satyamurthy – Weird Tales of a Bangalorean (a replacement copy)

Gemma Files – Spectral Evidence

And some DVDs cheap

Twin Peaks s3 and Get Out.

With Sarah’s 6-CD changer, I decided to burn a few CDs to listen to (to avoid damaging all my precious music). I’ve since discovered that the MP3s have some serious volume differences that wouldn’t be an issue if I had just burned a regular CD. Things you forget when you aren’t burning a CD all the time.

In case you’re curious here’s the current rotation (which will change when my wife gets around to her collection:

1: ? & the Mysterians, Bombino, Emily Milling – Impossible Horror Soundtrack, France Gall, Holly Golightly & the Brokeoffs, Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats – Vol 1, Hailu Mergia & his Classical Instrument, Dodge Fiasco, Omar Khorshid and his Guitar

2: Bo Diddley, Hedgehog, Hank Ballard & the Midnighters, John Cale

3:Deadly Snakes, Sunday Sinners, Johnny Cash, JOMF, Inspiral Carpets

4:Sky Records compilation, The Bats, The Raincoats, Eric’s Trip, Ex Hex, Serge Gainsbourg

I am loving Killing Eve.

There was also a matinee concert/brunch seeing Dodge Fiasco

We also had a little weekend get-away to Georgina, ON. I’ll post a million sunset pics in a separate post, because it was really that spectacular.
