EDITED TO ADD:
I realize that some people reading my blog may not realize a wee ditty about me and the piano … ever since I was a little girl I wanted to play the piano. We were too poor for lessons, let alone to buy a piano. Then as an adult I was busy working full time and being a full time mom. So in retirement, at the age of 61, I bought a dusty, cob-web laden piano at an estate sale and began lessons. Late last year my husband decided to buy me a brand new piano since I play/practice every single day. So that’s the short story behind the piano.
What a beautiful post this is, Diane, and you are truly amazing! xo.
Those are so beautiful, Diane. I used to want to play when I was little, too, and never did. I don’t think I would have the patience now to learn but I think pianos themselves are really beautiful to look at and wish we had one…not really room for one, though.
You are so talented! It seems that everything you touch turns into a beauty… I love these pictures so much, they clearly show love for music!

It is never too late to pursue your passion. I love the story behind your piano. Have a great day!
Oh Diane, your pictures are fantastic. I just get wiggly inside knowing that we share this love of the piano together. I have a piano blog for my students. Would you consider letting me use one of your images?
Well done Diane, I have no musical leanings at all. Actually, being deaf is a real problem now so I rarely listen to any music.
You are one talented lady! How amazing to have the talent to play the piano. Beautiful!
oh I just love this post. beautiful images and words so true!
