Dang!  Are there that many pianos in Hawaii?

Aloha

First the good news.  Although November was the worst months I had since
coming to Hawaii, December turned out to be the best, with over $10,000 in
income. And so far, I've gotten 10 appointments in just the last 4 days, and
January is fast filling up. What makes me very encouraged is that most of
the new appointments I'm getting are "I got your name from..." Word of mouth
is starting to pay off. 

Now for the bad news. My wife and I have been in Colorado Springs since Dec.
26th. The weather has been nice, for Colorado, with day time temperatures in
the 50's. But this morning we woke up to 10" of snow, 11 degrees, and a wind
chill of probably below zero. I haven't seen this much snow since I moved to
Alabama 8 years ago. Our son and daughter in law went to Park City for a
nice vacation, so this morning I've got to get out there and shovel snow. I
realize for some of you this is normal, but for me, ... well, let's just
say, we're flying back to Hawaii on Wednesday.  I know, life sucks. :)

Happy New Year everyone.
