Unlock Safari’s Secrets on Your Mac in Just Five Lessons

Doing basic  internet searches on Safari is fairly straightforward. However, within Safari there  are many options most of us never explore. Join us for five lessons that will  unlock the secrets of Safari: options contained in the top menu, choices  provided on the opening screen, tips for more efficient searching, possibilities  hidden within the share feature, and a demo of why you want to click on the AA  button. After completing the five lessons you will truly know the ins and out of  Safari. 

 View and review them at your own pace. And don’t forget to call on us, BoomerTECH Adventures guides, Jill, Chris, and Ed. We are available to answer any of your questions at ed@boomertechadventures.com

Learn to play the ukulele! It has never been more popular and you don't even have to know how to read music! On the uke you can knock out folk music, rock, blues, jazz, pop, country, tunes old and new -- even classical music. Duncan Perry, who has taught more than 700 students of all ages, will introduce you to essential chords and playing techniques using commonly known songs. Oh, and there are lots of laughs along the way. And, learning to play an instrument is good for your brain! You will need a playable ukulele and an electronic tuner or a tuner app. And when folks hear you play this happy instrument, well, they just have to smile! If you don’t own a ukulele, please contact your instructor, Duncan (at uketime24@gmail.com) for guidance about buying one.

. What are you waiting for? Grab a uke and get ready for a musical adventure, then spread the joy!

Registration Fee: $79

Biography Duncan is an experienced multi-instrumentalist who has been performing and teaching folks how play the ukulele for the last 14 years. Having served as a volunteer music therapist in medical and hospice settings, he quickly came to understand that music is medicine and that learning to play an instrument not only sharpens the brain but helps reduce stress. It also brings joy to those who play the uke and to their audiences. Duncan has taught in a variety of Maine communities and did not let the COVID-19 epidemic stop him. He simply moved from teaching in person to an online format and now reaches students all over Maine, New Hampshire and beyond
