Hi, my name is Duane and I am from Crystal River, Florida which is the best place in the world to observe the elusive manatee. Was given an eddy Finn ukulele by my brother in law and have become obsessed. What a fun instrument! New to the instrument, site and forum. Looking to learn and improve and have some fun.

Welcome to our forum!
What model is the Eddy Finn? I have the round "camp" model. I used to have the one based on a cigar box.

Welcome. We are from Wisconsin and were planning on wintering in Crystal River this winter. But due to COVID we have decided not to travel to Florida this year. Normally I bring with several of my ukes and always look for someone to jam with. Message me with contact information and we can plan on getting together next time I get down.

Welcome back to UU, BBQUKER! I guess you've been away for a while since I don't recognise your user name.
There are some members from Wisconsin who hopefully can tell you about uke groups at or around Crystal River.
I think that many groups are still in the zooming stage, meeting up online. There are a couple of other threads with times, groups, passwords etc. If you can't find a local face-to-face session, you should be able to join one of those online meetups.
EDIT: Sorry BBQUKER, I misread your post. You don't need any advice.
