This film shows Alaskan scenery and traditional American ballads (and one original song about rat snakes) played on a vintage Martin ukulele. I got the idea for this concert because I was stopped so many times along the Parks Highway for road work crews to work on the highway. I thank Alaska Department of transportation and Public Works for the inspiration. The film was shot on 17June 2015 between Anchorage and Fairbanks and on 25 June 2015 between Fairbanks and Anchorage. It includes miscellaneous views of the scenery, fire damage and comments on the virtues of the ukulele over other stringed instruments.

Martin M2. It took me about 30 tries to get this take and even this isn't where I'd like it to be.
