It was great to return to the 2019 Los Angeles International Ukulele Festival with Sarah Maisel! So many improvements and what a great time to be had. Even with all the running around I managed to get a few photos (not as many as I would have liked!). Wish it was longer to catch up with friends that we haven't seen in forever!
