Have you wondered why that uke you ordered from China has not arrived?  It may be on one of these container ships anchored in Bellingham Bay.

Apparently there are many ships anchored awaiting off loading in Seattle.  I have never before seen this sight on Bellingham Bay, 90 miles from Seattle.

I got Adam's uke strung up today.  It is not only a beauty, but sounds wonderful.  This is a real winner.

I found an ugly indent on the neck so sanded it down and am now refinishing it.  A few more coats and the finish will be repaired.
