I probably will. I hate to get rid of it, but he really wants it himself. *Laughs*.

Sees you finding a place to sit,as I go over to Bruce,and say loud enough for you to hear.

100 years. *Smiles*. My friend from highschool asked if I wanted it because she was going to throw it away otherwise. The guy who is repairing it absolutely freaked over it.

Smiles back,

Good evening.

that is very cool *smiles* if it is worth a lot in the end I'd consider getting it insured.

Well as long as you're not too sore... I don't like taking pills either

Having overheard what si said,I smile and make eye contact when she says my name.

Nice to meet you.

leans in with a kiss, looking for a place to sit

You have a 1000 yr old violin?

opens the door, making sure to ring the ding a ling bell more than once

Hi there ! Are you open ? Ray is somewhere back there, parking the car

Back to being sore. I didn't take the muscle relaxer last night. But, I'm still better than I was so I'll take it!

No, it is a 1911 Edmund Reichart. Even without the work it is really beautiful.

But it is over 100 years old and in really great shape. Once he's done, I'll have him do an appraisal. I found one online in terrible shape, lifting wood, missing parts and it went at auction for 1,500. So I imagine mine has some additional value. And its numbered 125, so I'm guessing it's an early violin of it's make and model. It has mother of pearl flowers on the bridge. I can't wait to see it all back in playing order!

Great pics.
