Yes, the piano is scratched...quite a bit in fact. It is scratched because it is loved. Just tonight my kids played Mozart, Bach and, Chopin. I love to listen to them play. I stopped taking lessons when I got so heavily involved with politics. I still play, however.

The piano is not for sale. I don't believe I will ever sell it. If I get a new one, I'll just take this one to the shop

Actually, the "attic cleaning" is because I am building a gym here at the shop. I need the space to get ready for some challenges this next summer

Happy Thanksgiving to all you guys!

David

Most folks would just join a gym. The Kirkhams? They build one.

I'm getting into Crossfit now. I really like it. Too many fun things to do while you are working out.

Joining a "normal" gym doesn't really cut it as they are quite boring. Who wants to go there and run on a treadmill for hours? A critical part of working out is being with your friends. I got thinking about it. Where are all my close friends? Right here at the shop. So, I just decided to make a gym here so we could all work out together. Besides, they will all feel better and be happier after working out. It gives us all a goal to work for together.

I generally go for the conversation and flat screen TV's. Cute females in leotards helps matters too.

The hard part isn't beginning the workout regimen (e.g., New Year's resolutions), but making it part of the rest of your life.

My wife is the one I look at.

I've been hiking, running, crossfit for the past 4 months now. Darren made me do it

A plain bagel = 300 calories.

A 30-minute continuous (nonstop) workout = 300 calories (about).

Never forget the nutrition part of the equation. Again, it's a life's work. Just like building beautiful Kirkhams everyday.

Did you know that the morning of Thanksgiving is one of the busiest days of the year in a gym? Folks think they can workout enough to compensate for all the pumpkin pie, turkey, cranberry muffins, gravy, potatoes, etc.
