This entry is going to be a little of this and a little of that....I'm awaiting my latest issue of Ukulele mag,and a Stella banjo uke that was given to me in need of restoration. I had it restored by Doug at McCabes guitar shop in Santa Monica,and will post photos of it when it gets here. (This will be my first playable banjo uke ever!)
The ramp that I needed after I broke my knee last year has been taken down,and I'm in the getting used to stairs again mode....and that's no complaint.
To other ukulele news: in case you haven't heard,Fender.com has very reasonable online uke lessons now,and last wed ukulele was featured in the Facebook live weekly session! Abby and Nikki were on ukulele and bass guitar respectively,and what they did was great. I can't recommend the Fender classes enough- whether you play guitar,ukulele,or bass. (or all three!)
Halloween (my fave holiday!) is quickly approaching. This year I'll be handing out candies to the trick or treaters for the first time in nearly 20 years. Living with Dad was great,however he forbid me to decorate the porch or hand out candy as he had a somewhat jolting experience some years before I moved back in with him. Now that he is on the other side of the veil.I'll be doing what I've missed terribly- greeting kids in costume and helping in spreading the air of mystery that is so thick on that particular night. I plan on having uke in hand while in costume on my porch.
How many of you plan on having your ukes in hand while handing out candy or trick or treating? Send in a family friendly photo of yourself in costume with your uke and you could wind up being in a future entry of Flea Plucker! (be sure to tell your friends and share this blog with them) Be sure to put "Halloween" in the subject title when sending your pic in!
