This past weekend, my wife and I were invited to a BBQ party at a fabulous beach house just past Kahala.  The party was also to celebrate our friend's baby girl's first birthday.  Here on the islands, we often throw a big party for a keiki's first birthday.   I just love... 詳細...

Hahaione Elementary School just had their Fun Fair about two weeks ago.  I can recall when I was at Ala Wai Elementary School and we had our Fun Fair but it sure was not like this one! Well, some of it was similar, especially the games that were made utilizing items that... 詳細...

October 31 is All Hallows Eve or what we have come to know as Halloween!  From when I was a child, I remember Halloween to be a scary day.  However, in order not to be scared, we had to dress up like the ghosts and goblins that were to be out and about. I always thought dressing up for Halloween was only for children but lately, I have come to realize that even adults have fun dressing up and sometimes they are better dressed than the children.  ... 詳細...

It has been a few months since my wife and I did our last Sunday morning walk.  We walked all the way to "The Wall" in Waikiki Beach once again and we noticed that there were only a handful of people body boarding.  The waves were not so great and that may be the reason that... 詳細...

Yes, one may not think that Hawaii is cold enough to have an ice skating rink but we do have one.  Actually, it is the only one in Hawaii.  It is called Ice Palace and it is located in the Stadium Mall Shopping area across from the Aloha Stadium. Come to think of it, Ice Palace... 詳細...

I think this is the first time since becoming an adult that I have actually gone camping.  The last time would probably be when I was in elementary school.  (Now that would be a long time ago!) Roasting marshmallows was always the highlight of any camp.  This time we did not... 詳細...

Sorry I have been away for so long.  I was in Japan traveling with the Monterey Jazz Festival County High School All Star Big Band.  Did you know that you can get a great deal of exercise just traveling in Japan?  With the network of Bullet Trains, commuter trains, and subways... 詳細...

One of the great things about Hawaii is that in almost every yard of a large house, there is a mango tree.  As we enter the summer months, it is prime season for the mangoes to become ripe and very juicy.  In these pictures, this is a mango tree at my brother-in-law's house. ... 詳細...

I think this is the first time in 6 months that I actually picked up a golf club.  My friends invited me to play and I was afraid that I had not practiced for so long and I would make everyone laugh.  We played on the Championship Course at the Hawaii Kai Golf Course.  This... 詳細...
