Home again, home again, jiggity-jig.

The band found our way back home on Thursday as we performed for the nice folks at Martha Franks Baptist Retirement Center in Laurens.  The Yesterukes got started when our now retired leader, Dianne, hosted a learn to play the ukulele course there some 10 plus years ago.  The then very small group worked up a few songs and performed their first ever concert for the residents. 

Word got around and other ukulele players joined the group and the band ventured out to other venues near and far.  The band has grown to twenty active members from the original group.  Not only has the number of members grown, but there is not a single member of the original band on the current roster and we seem to add new members each year.

Let's see what the next ten years brings.

Here are a few pics from Martha Franks.
