The Radio Saga



We found it fitting "Dirty Water" by the Standells was playing as we started the trip out of Boston this morning. Started the trip on a high note remembering all the good times in Boston and the times we've heard that song- sox games, Bruins Stanley Cup parade, bars...

That was followed by "I"m going to Jackson" by Johnny Cash which is also perfect because we will be spending a couple days in Jackson, WY doing some skiing and visiting our friends. Can't wait!!

After that we decided to pop in the CD Polly made for us into our fancy 6 disc changer. Apparently today is the first time since we bought our car 3 months ago that we tried to use the fancy thing because we didn't know it was broken! Go figure. You know us, we are all about the details! Who the heck needs to have 6 CDs in at once anyway? Ridiculous its even an option. Luckily Bub gave us (and installed) a Sirius player so I called Sirius and activated it to later find out this model doesn't broadcast a frequency through the radio like our old version! Oh details, details. It seemed as if we were SOL, but nope! Miraculously our "fancy" CD player also has an old school tape deck and we just happened to have an old school tape to ipod converter (again, thanks to Bub) in the car so we were able to connect the device to the radio and are now jammin' out to some great beats!!

  1. ha, glad you aren't having a silent cross country road trip. I have a 6 disc cd changer in my car and the grand kids love it. My car didn't have the cartridge so I found one online, it's nice.
