<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>Mine is slow May till the beginning of September,
when I start the University. (Contract) </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>Except for a rush the end of June for school
closings, and some music exams.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>I like it that way, I get the summers for the most
part, off.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>I tell people not to tune through the summer, as
the humidity swings are 60% to 90% + , varying week to week. So they could have
it tuning done one week and it could be horrible a couple of weeks
later.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>Also not too many lessons through the
summer.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>It works for me.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>I run as full out as I want from Sept thru end of
April. Also I don't call people, they call me. I know I am very lucky, to have
it work out the way, I like.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>Regards,</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
