Bell Choir

Mickey invited me to go to an open house for her bell choir tonight. It was just to watch one of their rehearsals. I thought it would be fun. After the first song, I was just wishing I could try. I realized they were short one ringer, and was just about to ask if I could play to, when one of the ladies said, "Maybe you'd like to try it." I jumped out of my chair and grabbed a couple of bells before the director could tell me "No." It was so fun! And I did really well, if I do say so myself. They gave me the biggest bells. It makes me look important, but it was really like singing bass. I only had half as many notes as everyone else! That was a good way to break me in!

  3. How can you call those bells? They're not even straight. And where are the bolts for striking them?
