The Vinyl Cafe September 30th, 2012 "Wonders of the Wilderness"
From: Vinyl Cafe
Series: Vinyl Cafe
Length: 54:22
We have a story exchange about insects. And how they can get under our skin, in the most unexpected of ways. We have a story about another family cottage and about the people that owned it and about what they did with that cottage, or more importantly, the land on which the cottage sits. And, of course, we have a story about Dave. And what happened to him when he found a little sapling growing in the back of his car.
