Updates

So quick updates w/ pancake review... first the review:

The Gazebo in Williamsburg, VA

Very satisfying. This was my second time there, the first being the morning I got married, July 29, 2006. This time, I was down there for my annual running of sound for local graduations so I can make money to buy camera gear extravaganza. It went well and so did this celebratory breakfast at noon the day I left to come back.

Blueberry Buckwheat Cakes: Large Stack
Coffee: Short Stack
Home Fries: Medium Stack
Service: Medium Stack

Also chowed on a good veggie omelet and biscuit. Sounds pretty good right now actually.

As for records, I have been doing a lot of purchasing at shows since I've been trying to photograph much more live music. Mostly 7 inches cause they be the cheapest. The only actual record store I've been in the last couple of months has been Plan 9 in Williamsburg, which afforded me a sawheet deal. Thank you Scott. ;) Here's the rundown of what I have acquired since California.
