Piping Stories: Lost in The Alcove Courtyard
A surprise retirement party at The Alcove turned into my favorite kind of improvised entrance. I piped down the sidewalk into the courtyard, then realized I had no idea which party was the party, so I kept marching in circles, eyebrows raised, guests laughing and pointing me in the right direction.
The surprise was all the better once I found him and he saw the surprise was for him. Later, a patron told me the bar erupted when I passed playing Scotland the Brave, like they were ready to fight for Scotland. My kind of crowd.
