In April of 2019, my local ukulele group leaders arranged for Stu Fuchs to come to Salt Lake City to do a workshop. It was wonderful. Stu is a great teacher. His love for the ukulele, and his ability to share that with people is so awesome. He was scheduled to return this summer, but, you know......Covid. So my uke club leader and Stu came up with a Zoom workshop idea that took place yesterday. It was so much fun, and I learned a lot about spicing up my strumming. Lots to practice now.
In addition to Stu's great teaching, I was so overjoyed to see my local ukulele family on the screen. Just to see their faces & chat was so wonderful. I miss playing with them so much. There were over 100 people attending the workshop from all over the US, UK, and Canada. As I scanned the screens to see my Salt Lake City friends, I saw two of my new friends from Ukulele Catskill in New York. I played hooky from the Ukulele Catskill Saturday Zoom jam to attend the workshop, so seeing them was a bonus thrill. My local uke family, combined with my online distant uke family all in one place. So cool.
The world is big......but the ukulele brings us all together.
