Hi Sherrie.
I play the little ukulele and meet with a group of friends here once a week to play. It's so much fun! My mom played piano when I was growing up and we used to sing around the piano, so I know tons of 30s and 40s standards, and those translate really well to the uke. Learning to play the uke gave me a singing voice I didn't even know I had, and doing it at 55 gave me a great new pasttime!
George Harrison loved the ukulele, and said about it:
"Everybody should have a uke - it's so simple to carry with you and it is one instrument you can’t play and not laugh! I love them - the more the merrier. Everyone I know who is into the ukulele is “crackers.” So get yourself a few and enjoy yourself!

"Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, red wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming 'WOO HOO, what a ride!'"
