My Dad was a pianist too, Rosa, and a very good gardener. Our garden is open today for the Yellow Book. It's not looking it's best because of all the rain we've had.

That's interesting. So many more pianos in family homes back then. Good luck with your open garden day Amelia. I think everyone is in the same boat because of all the rain. I'm sure it will still be a delight to walk around. Best wishes.

A lovely photo Rosa.................there's something really charming and comforting about old black and white photos such as this, even if you don't know the subjects. i bet it brings back lots of memories.

Another charming photo in the PiP............the boys look like twins.

Rosa, a great shot for Father;s Day. My dad didn't play the piano, but was from a very musical family, two sisters sang and had a weekly "radio show" for an hour and also sang at different venues. I love music and have sung all my life. played the piano, sang at weddings, church, funerals and IM SO GLAD both our sons are musical , playing piano and different instruments in High School, they are both now in a men's ensemble with C D published / recorded out of Nashville, Tennessee .... our piano still sits in our family room.

I love the pip on your shot Rosa. enjoyed the info too that you shared. your brothers DO look like twins. have a great Father;s Day there.... We are out with both our sons and their families now for church and dinner..... Best wishes , Sarah
