Flying Fingers


Grandma and Grandpa surprised Jessi with a new electric piano. We had it arranged to arrive while she was away visiting them. First we had to find a new home for our beastly old cabinet grand. After checking with friends we finally resorted to putting a sign out by the road - "Free Piano - inquire within". Within an hour or two someone had claimed it and had arranged to move it on Friday morning. She was thrilled to have a piano for her daughter and we were thrilled to have it out in time as the new piano arrived that evening. Jessi came home on Saturday and nearly walked right past it!! But she is absolutely THRILLED with it. It even has her favorite Pride and Prejudice song prerecorded on it. Plus you can download songs from the web and it will play them for you. I almost wonder why you need to learn to play anymore! But Jessi says it helps her to learn cuz you can slow the songs down (or speed them up if you like) and play along with them. We are all enjoying it.

Hey, that's pretty cool! Glad you found a taker for the "old cabinet"... sometimes it works best with a sign that says "free" :)
