Some people regard us as odd

Saturday we took another look at the wood-paneled wall in the piano store. The store owner told us he paid $35,000 to have it installed. The question now is: Does the owner of the building want to tear out the wall and sell it to us? We are waiting for a response.

Meanwhile, we purchased one of the store’s chandeliers and put in a bid on another chandelier that someone else had already bid on. If they don’t buy the second chandelier, we get it. Being very strange people, we told the store owner (not the building owner) that the first chandelier will go in the piano room in our house, and the second chandelier will go in the new two-room outhouse that was built last year at the high ranch. The wall separating the rooms doesn’t go all the way to the ceiling, and the ceiling itself was built extra high to accommodate a chandelier which can be admired from either room.

Waiting, waiting.…
