Howdy, it was great! I was surprised of how little uke playing was on the island. Lots of uke stores but not many uke folks in public. wished I could have found a jam but I played every day and jammed with my dad. Loved the island though. How are things with you?
Cheers,
Jay
Just wanted to say Hi, and that it was good to meet you at the Festival on Saturday. I am sure you can't wait for you Compass Rose and my guess is that when you get it, it will exceed your expectations...
I got her a few months back. She is BANGING! I swear, Rick's ukulele really do sound better than ALL of the K brands... It looks ridiculous. Send me your email and I'll shoot you a few pics
haha Hey! I've been distracted here at home. It's been 2 weeks since I got back and I hadn't unpacked my suitcases yet! (still haven't finished xD) Also haven't been able to play ukulele well in the past few days because I accidentally cut my stumming hand's nails too short :'(
Cool. I've got a photo of your uncle from the CGM in DC. He was sitting on the table next to me. Living history! You should be very proud of his service.
Sorry but I just noticed your message on the 100/442 character I was using for my photo. My dad was 442 and I volunteer a lot with the Nisei vets from WWII.
Was your uncle Tom Sakamoto? I know there were two others onboard the Missouri at the surrender signings but I only know of Tom. He might have been MacArthur's interpreter.
