Look What I Found At A Yard Sale Today

We went by a yard sale today and I found some interesting stuff...

My daughter has been taking piano lessons for about three years now, and she really enjoys it.  We didn't have a piano at first, so she practiced on a keyboard.  Not long after she started her lessons my Dad bought her a piano that he got for a good price at an estate sale.  We were both super excited.  It's an old piano, and it's beautiful.

I found some piano books today at a yard sale.

These books are almost 50 years old.

This one's over 35 years old.

And how much fun (for me mostly!) will it be for her to learn a little Madonna!
I couldn't believe this was an EZ piano book.

This past Christmas she decided she wanted a violin.  I asked her if she wanted to take lessons, and she said no.  She just wanted the violin to play around with, and if she liked it maybe she could take some lessons later.  So we got her a cheap little violin.  She doesn't pick it up all that much.  I found these violin books, and thought maybe they'd give her some direction.

I have a fairly new hobby of collecting vinyl records.  I have lots of 7 inch records that my mom gave to me, and I just recently purchased a 12 inch that I love.  I found some more at the yard sale today for $.50 a piece.

I got the six music books and eight records for $9.  Not too bad!

I also started a new audio book today, Edgar Allan Poe The Complete Short Stories.  I've never read anything written by Poe that I can remember.  I listened to several stories while I mowed the yard, and lets just say they are interesting.
