We found the old accordian at my parent's place a few years ago...and bestowed it on a brother-in-law who also had played the accordian as a child. He didn't seem especially pleased with the gift!Judy https://www.blogger.com/profile/00929685771427155673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453406680900182492.post-72726758127300541912008-07-07T16:49:00.000-04:002008-07-07T16:49:00.000-04:00I'm stopping by from Lavinia's blog, to say congra...I'm stopping by from Lavinia's blog, to say congratulations on your award. I loved your accordion story. My mom played accordion briefly and laughs about how she learned one song and played it over and over - she's sure the neighbors weren't happy. I played a teeny bit of piano, a lot of snare drum, and a few years in a handbell choir. It was good to make your acquaintance!Rosezilla (Tracie Walker)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12265953530935691847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453406680900182492.post-67907272292865375622008-07-07T16:41:00.000-04:002008-07-07T16:41:00.000-04:00Congratulations on your award NanaTrish!

My husband told me his mother wanted him to play the accordian when he was young, but he wanted to learn how to play the drums! They both gave up trying to convince the other, and he can't play anything.Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453406680900182492.post-65614305791600264462008-07-07T16:07:00.000-04:002008-07-07T16:07:00.000-04:00I remember wanting to learn to play the accordian!...I remember wanting to learn to play the accordian! lol Never got my hands on one though.<BR/><BR/>In my life, I have played piano and violin. I'm not to great on the piano anymore, my husband and step son are the proficients in our family, but I can still squeak out a tune on the violin!<BR/><BR/>Congrats on your AWARD!!

I'm sure your granddaughter got a good laugh out of it....<BR/><BR/>I confess I've never been an accordion fan, mostly because all the accordion players I saw when I was young were quite "geeky looking". We used to go to a lot of Greek dances and the accordion player in the bands would invariably be the least attractive....<BR/><BR/>The drummers were nearly always the best looking!<BR/><BR/>ps.. I am a battle-scarred veteran from the "childhood piano wars".Laviniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08810442216887536113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453406680900182492.post-67939176931451983122008-07-07T09:49:00.000-04:002008-07-07T09:49:00.000-04:00Congrats to you!

I played(or tried to) the piano as a child. I really didn't like the teacher, she was scary and yelled a lot. I haven't played in years.<BR/><BR/>Have a wonderful week.<BR/><BR/>hugs,<BR/>BarbBarbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01994497495485079152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453406680900182492.post-42724751216571546772008-07-07T09:30:00.000-04:002008-07-07T09:30:00.000-04:00So you were relieved to break your arm??

Who would ever think a child would be relieved! haha<BR/><BR/>I am here from Lavinia Ladyslippers place......I am glad I stopped by! <BR/><BR/>I played the piano for 6 years as a child/young teen. I can still play.....slowly. Funny thing is that I learned more from my husband after we got married than I ever did from my piano teacher. I couldn't stand her! I did it for my grandmother. <BR/><BR/>sweet blog!Suzy-Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03160021278644336665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453406680900182492.post-63773427615068132322008-07-07T03:22:00.000-04:002008-07-07T03:22:00.000-04:00Thanks for stopping by my blog!

Glad you got one too.<BR/>I will bookmark your blog & hope you will drop by again! <BR/>I used to play the piano for one year between the ages of seven and eight! However I don't have a piano now! Not sure if I can still play!
