Local Music

I went to practice with a buddy of mine who met up with these cats. They're getting together to play a gig at a party. They play local rock music, but with a different feel. I always enjoy meeting new people especially talented musicians from different genres.

Hohner Accordion

I purchased this  Hohner accordion on Ebay last week and was pleasantly surprised with how well it was kept. I was grateful when I saw this hand-written note inside. The previous owner was very concerned that I would not be satisfied with the purchase because he neglected to put in the bass section of the accordion because he did not know how to put it in. I am going to send him another note letting him know that I was very satisfied with the purchase, and even more appreciative that he took the time to write me a note. I'm also going to tell him that I can place the bass section in myself, as I have experience fixing accordions, and that his accordion is very much appreciated and will be in good care.

Hohner

I am grateful for my new accordion tuning tool set from Hohner. Hohner is a respectable accordion maker. I used to own a Hohner accordion. This tool set was expensive and the of the best quality. I know this tool set will help me tune accordions in a professional manner.

Packages

I received these packages today. I'm hoping that it will be the start of a new hobby of mine. I went on eBay and purchased an accordion bellows and a tuning kit. I plan on learning how to tune my own accordions. This is not very common amongst accordion plays here in San Antonio. I'm grateful that I finally got started purchasing the materials that I need since I have been trying to do this for years now.

Tye Red

My daughter and I buried her fish today. Tye Red was given to her as a birthday gift on her 5th birthday in 2012 in Allende, Mexico. He stayed in a small container that was very cloudy until I managed to get a 10 gallon fish tank with a filter treated for Beta fish. My daughter picked out a castle for him and he was very comfortable and a good fish. He lived over a year and four months when we thought he would only last those two weeks in the container. Ironically, he was laid to rest in a coffin-like box given to my daughter from her uncle's wedding that she insisted we use. She left a few glued pennies in the box for him. I am grateful for Tye and going through this with my daughter. R.I.P. Tye Red
