the hills are alive...

with the sound of music!

~

My next-door neighbor bought a piano, 

moved 3 yrs later,

and gave it to me for free!

~

It had 11 broken hammers, 3 missing dampeners, etc.

A nice man named Paul fixed it for $150.

That, my friends, is a steal.

~

The living room is a little cramped, but hello.
We live in the projects.

And, almost everything in this room was free.

No complaints here!

~

Now, to get back to where my talent used to be.

Practice, practice, practice.

One day, I'm going to be besides myself

when I can play without the soft pedal held down through every song.

Cheers!
