Doors unlocked I had an "out in the boonies" appointment...intricate directions were received and I followed them to the letter. When I got in the driveway I opened the garage entrance door. A Cadilac and a Lincoln were sitting there, so I presumed the owner was home. I then knocked on the back door and a large dog was barking, and barking, and BARRRKING! Well, no answer to the doorbell, so I tried the door and it was open. The barking got even louder with scratches, etc. Nobody home! I saw a phone on the kitchen counter, so what the heck. There was an envelope by the phone addressed to someone other than I was looking for! I picked up the phone and called the lady I was supposed to be tuning for...she said Oh, you are at "so & so's, just come on down the hill. You can see it from there!" I said OK if I don't meet someone with a 30-06 on the way. I locked all the doors as I left and went and tuned the right piano! That dog never did quit barking..l thought sure he would tear that door down, but luckily he didn't. Hope they had a key to get in when they got home.
