Matthew and Danielle packed up their gear (including one Martin tenor ukulele, a LoPrinzi custom guitar, a Taylor guitar and assorted other guitars, amps and a bass) and moved to Ojai this last week where they’ll make their first home as newlyweds.
The rental truck was packed full (and it wasn’t *all* musical instruments!) and both were smiling as they headed toward I-5 for the 10-hour drive (they had to drive 55 mph because of the rental truck). They arrived safely (the fire’s not threatening Ojai any longer) and are setting up their new lives in Southern California.
What does that have to do with ukuleles? Well, the tie-in is that Matt moved all his “stuff” from his room and that leaves some extra space in the house–and what do you think that space can be used for? Yep, ukuleles and ukulele books and slack key books and Hawaiian DVDs and, well, you get the idea. Alden and Matt always shared a bedroom so now, when he comes home from college, Alden is sharing a bedroom with ukuleles instead. I think he’d rather have his brother…
