It would never be the same again.<br /><br />The piano is beautiful. I love its curves and the turned posts.

Chapter 9. It's a lovely, uplifting tale, a resurrection story all its own.<br /><br />These pictures made me want to read it again, and I did.<br /><br />I think your shining the light of day onto this old piano is a story in itself; sometimes I want to play your pianos, but just looking at this one is enough.RachelDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11204947567574886675noreply@blogger.com
