SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO

Another gorgeous day at 9:00, breakfast time. We have a Residents' meeting today and are expecting some good news about living here. We heard some of this yesterday and I am excited. I must tell you about one item of interest. Our Executive Director has been looking around to purchase a new or newish affordable piano for our dining room. She was having a problem finding a good used baby grand. And then I received something special in the mail. 


A university in Nampa, which is my alma mater, sent me its annual notice of pianos for sale. It listed several famous makes. I had the office to place this letter in the E. D.'s mailbox and forgot about it. At yesterday's "Chat with Janine," she said that thanks to me, she was on the hunt for a piano again. She has an appointment in two days to see these pianos, some of which are baby grands. (As a side note, the university is going "all Steinway," for the future.)


Further excitement includes this place's getting rid of its guest suites and directing over-night guests to nearby Marriott Hotel at a reduced price. This allows us more suites here for people moving in. And they are coming in all the time. Some leave, of course, for various reasons, but growth is imminent. Soon, with all the changes taking place, this will be the most desired retirement facility in the Treasure Valley.
