Why do pianos on craigslist exist when i live in an apartment? Listening to Minnesota Public Radio at work makes me pine for private lessons with Dr. Manno, the tiniest, toughest piano teacher at Minnesota State University Moorhead. Ah, she new how to push me! She also quickly understood that I lack aptitude for counting rhythms and apologetically recommended I listen to recordings of the pieces instead of dissecting them incorrectly.
I apologize for lack of posts. Our free wi-fi disappeared from the dining room, so we are officially signed up to shell out $20 a month for blog access.

Tell me about it! Once we get our house, I will talk Kate into letting me get a free piano off of craigslist.
You're back! I was just asking your sister how you've been! Yes, we have a piano waiting for us when we get a home. When . . .
Wait...what's this now Aaron?
Hmmm. Yeah we'll see about that.
Learning piano when you are in your 20's is next to impossible (so says my B- in college piano).
I am glad Claudia enforced the learning while you all were just babes. I on the other hand only played violin in elementary school...on an adult sized violin. Since they didn't have any child sized left handed ones available.
Also, Ruth. I miss you!!
