Our new piano arrived! This old girl belonged to Jen's grandmother who passed away a year ago. Her oldest child inherited this 1921 Steinway M but did not have the space for it, so it is on indefinite loan to his oldest child--Jen. But don't be to shocked by the name and date because pianos actually depreciate over time, and this one needs thousands of dollars in repair so it will be a little while before Jen is using it regularly. Right now that is her justification for keeping her upright (also in the photo). Any minute now I need to go pick up the new block I had made to lock in the left leg currently secured by a piano bench and stack of books. Even still, we're excited to have this piece of history in our home.
