Meet Isabella

This is Isabella. She is my husband's classical guitar. She sounds beautiful. Each night, he settles himself into a wicker chair in our room and practices. Gradually, the kids creep in and lay on the floor. Then the dog shows up to listen until he passes out. He is learning some classical pieces, but keeps coming back to Stairway to Heaven. I've also heard some traces of James Taylor and Restless Heart coming out of the bedroom. What a great way to relax! A classical guitar is played with fingernails, not a pick. My DH made a brief trip into a nail salon to have 4 fingers on his right hand done in acrylic. They really are pretty- and functional- for guitar playing- and scratching his DW's back!
