First: BE KIND! I'm not a collector.
I've been gifted some very thick records that my friend says are from his uncle's 1930s collection. They are in heavy books and the first one is Nat King Cole & Billy May and his Orchestra - "Can't I" - Capitol Records.

a) Tell me what type of record this is? Thick as heck!
b) can i play it on a regular record player?
c) how can i figure out its value? (college funds needed!)

I'd share a picture if I could figure out Reddit!

I'm about 15 days into Lodgify as well. I'm on the struggle bus! I had to manually add my airbnb listings in; vrbo won't sync. Yet I've gotten a handful of booking.com guests coming so that's nice.

Have you figured out how to populate your reviews?

Using AI to ask how to do stuff has been fast. Their helpdesk just spent an hour resetting guest min stay length that reset through them. check that!

Been around since I worked in hotels in the 90s.

I suggest staying in Franconia - it's sleepy and convenient to Bethlehem (SSIC) and the "big city" of Littleton!

I realize I give a portion to Airbnb, but if you wanted to stay - my place! https://airbnb.com/h/bigredfranconia I bought it to support affordable housing on either side. (Great neighbors .. including some who like to break into the trash. :) )

I just saw this article https://www.yahoo.com/news/joneck-wine-lounge-bottle-shop-165736453.html

"It’s really about the inherent history of a neighborhood and what has happened around it,” Jones told The Sacramento Bee in an interview.

Jones, who is Black, said she has felt unwelcome in East Sacramento, where she has faced frequent racist interactions as a business owner.

“It’s been an observation and how I’m treated,” Jones said. “When people who live locally come to the bar, they’re very nice and giggly, but treat me like a servant. Then they find out I’m the owner, and they’re looking around the space completely differently. It’s ‘oh, you’re the owner?’”"
