Hi Stan, hopefully we can all pass down the joy of music to the ones we love. As you say mate, it's a gift to share!

We have an old National Triolian Resonator that my husband's grandpa played. We inherited it a few years ago, when his uncle passed away. I wish we had a pic of him playing it. You can tell he played it a lot.

That is an amazing photo! Thank you for sharing it with us. My grandmother had an old plastic uke, but I don't know if we have a picture of her with it.
Thinking hard, thinking back really hard there were no musicians nor music on either side of my family. Nobody played or sang anything at all..........no uncles, aunts, cousins, grandparents, nothing, nada!!!
At the again of 57 I am now starting a new trend. If I ever have grandchildren they will learn to play and sing. Time to start a new family tradition.
Thanks for the picture Cam, it is awesome.

Please post a pic Debby, I'd love to take a look.
Hopefully there's one stashed away somewhere, have a dig around Laura!
Thanks Dave, if anyone has the enthusiasm to pass it on, it's you mate!
This is simply wonderful, thanks for sharing! I just love the fashions of the day too!

My Dad (RIP) was well known to be quite the character. He was always wearing his infamous "derby" hat, and played a mean "air" fiddle. Caught this picture of him in all said glory back in the 1970s.
Great Picture. You should try to do a similar picture with yourself and friends, and place the pictures in side by side frames. This will be a great treasure for your future grandchildren who will then share it on UU.

My dad played uke but I'm sad to say there's no photographic evidence... I do have a handful of photos from his early years in Hawaii though. He worked on the Matson Lines Lurline between San Francisco and Honolulu in the years prior to WWII. This one's a favorite.

... from the 1950's, a local dance combo, not a ukulele in sight, I'm afraid, but Dad's brother, my uncle Reg, is on clarinet
