Meet Maggie... she's a gal I met at Ukulele school a few years ago. Her and I belong to a GREAT group of 13 Uke players called, The Ukesters (whom you'll meet in a later post). She's a confident, witty, professional person who lights up a room when she enters... she's got this fabulous demeanor about herself and a hearty wholesome laugh. Some people are just like that... you can't help but smile at her and want to be her friend!!
Maggie is taking a wee leave of absence from her life here in Vancouver...
<waahh, waahhh..sniff... sniff> pass the tissue, please....
No, no... all is good... of course, I'll miss her but I think she's following her heart and is off on a sentimental journey that'll take her places and will fill her life full of unforgettable & wonderful experiences... she'll develop new friendships and meet interesting people... she'll listen to and learn awesome music... she'll savor yummie foods... the list as you know could go on and on when you're exploring the world!! And I couldn't be anything but happy for her!!
I only wish her the best and I know that, like in the photos above, she'll have her Ukulele with her... either in her backpack as she travels abroad or in her hand strumming & singing some Irish tunes to the patrons in an over-crowded Irish pub... perhaps, she'll even teach a few chords to those she meets on the way and create a little Ukester cheer as she heads towards a once in a lifetime opportunity!!
Cheers my friend... safe travels... and Uke it like you can!!!
Carrie.
