| Tom is a good friend of
mine We met in Annapolis Md. many years ago when we were both much younger
and active sailors. Tom is really the reason I took up guitar in the first
place. He visited us on our sailboat in the Bahamas one time and brought
along his Uke. I was impressed and decided to give it a try. Bonnie's brother
Kirk found me a baritone uke and Bonnie brought it down to Grenada . So my
obsession began. So after loosing touch with Tom for several years we have been enjoying our renewed friendship. The last couple of times Tom visited he has been playing my Martin 0-21 .So I am going to build tom a small concert much like the martin 0-21. |
