Yesterday, I lodged a complaint about his habit of practicing his clarinet in the afternoons -- I said he doesn't do it nearly often enough. We really enjoy the music that wafts into our space while he goes through warm-up drills and partial pieces of songs. Kevin, who mostly listens to classical music, playfully tries to guess the name of the music Dario is practicing.
One of the pleasures of this rental stay is the quirky idea that we meet people like Dario and his girlfriend who live in the unit above us. How did he find this place? The day he was hired by the orchestra, which is about two blocks away from here, he drove by and saw Nancy (the woman who owns the house) putting up a "For Rent" sign. Since Dario and his girlfriend have only one car between them, it's a perfect location for Dario's commute. It may not work forever, "because we can't have a dog," Dario said. "My girlfriend really wants a dog." At the moment, they are making do with a cat.
