Schaff piano store visit

[Tom Servinsky]

Greg,
I'm back all in one piece.  Lot's of hot sun.
If the room offer is still on I'd be glad to share a room with you.  As far
as the Schaff visit is concerned, I can definitely relate to the low budget
trips...been there done that on many of occasions.
However my trip this year has a purpose as I am restoring some rather
historical significant instruments and the ability to hand pick felts is
paramount for making these projects great.
