Better late than never. Back in January I hit up my local restore for the first time since October or November of 2016. Saw a few goodies, but, as I was under a collecting ban, I had to leave them all behind. Well I showed one of those goodies to a family friend, who took a liking to it.... so we went and got it. AB Whisperfan II. Then, last month, I hit up the ReStore I volunteer at and found this..1980 K63 Zephyr, the newest Zephyr I currently own.

so I hit up a demolition sale on a whim today, knowing the neighborhood it's in was chock-full of '80s modern houses and as such chock full of casas. I was not disappointed. So I walk in and go right, twoards the bedrooms, when I see a W-11. I'm like "now what might this control?" I spin around and BAM, there's a Venus in amazing condition. Pics don't do these justice. I'm so happy to finally have a Venus.

SURPRISE, MOTHERTRUCKERS. After some bargaining with mom and dad, I was able to get something of a holy grail fan. This is the sixth Zephyr I've owned, and the first newer than 1981 (1982 in this case) and the second with a K55. Marked at $75, I got it the day after the sale technically ended. See, unbeknownst to me, it was advertised as Friday/Saturday. So when I went on Sunday, it looked closed. Just as we were about to leave, some guy came out. We asked him about the sale and he said yeah, it's over but they still had stuff to sell so they let me in. Marked at $75, second day was 50% off so $37.50 and I got it for $30.
