<font color='black' size='2' face='Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif'> <div>When I was tuning in Southern Colorado I heard about an itinerant tuner, who traveled the plain states, south in the winter then back up north in the summer. He had a pick up truck with a camper, in which he lived. he more or less had regular customers, but when he got to a town, he would go to a church and start asking if there were pianos to be tuned. He would stay as long as he was needed, and then move on. </div> <div> </div> <div>It's a lifestyle I've thought about, but I just can't get myself away from Hawaii. :)</div> <div> </div> <div>Wim</div> <div></div> <div style="clear: both;"> <div> </div> </div> <div></div> <div></div> <div style="color: black; font-family: arial,helvetica; font-size: 10pt;">-----Original Message-----<br> From: David Boyce <David@piano.plus.com><br> To: pianotech <pianotech@ptg.org><br> Sent: Sun, Dec 16, 2012 6:40 am<br> Subject: [pianotech] Piano Tech of No Fixed Abode<br> <br> <div id="AOLMsgPart_1_2a680971-ea78-427f-819d-4f7b94b9035b"> <font face="Arial">You might be interested to read the Blog of itinerant piano tuner & technician Richard Roberts.  <br> <br> Richard is carrying out what might be called a lifestyle experiment, partly triggered by a rebellion against the costs of house rental or purchase in London.  He sleeps outside, and keeps tools to a minimum.  RIchard's Blog is well written and illustrated and makes interesting reading.
