Listening to Ferrara and Franchini from 1920. There were the dominant Hawaiian Steel performers of the early 1900s.
I fall in the orange. I can stay home and chill indefinitely, often prefer it. But when I get out a switch flips, and the situation calls for it, I can take the lead and talk to almost anyone, even public speaking. Can’t explain it.
This is 2 heat maps of where my direct line ancestors were born. In Europe it’s N. Yorkshire and Devon UK and Abruzzo and Campania Italy through many other places. In N. America, predominantly Virginia through a lot of other eastern states. I was born in CA and we moved to Hawaii at a young age.
$1000 on car repairs and service this week is a hard nut, but my Dad told me when I got my first car in the 70s, expect or spend $100/mo on car service and repair. He said if you skip a few months that $100 adds up. So 2 cars, 6 months. I guess it’s fair.
My wife wants to get a small refrigerator for make-up and meds. Room temperature Kona is in the mid 80s. The challenge is small thermoelectric chilled coolers don’t do well in higher room temp and compressor cooled aren’t that small.

Just got this email from PBS Hawaii. The Trump regime and MAGA is evil. We’ll donate whatever we can afford
Reoccurring theme. Our other car is in for its 75k mile check up. Chilling with coffee on my walk home from the dealer. Nice ocean breeze today.
Got to talk with Mark for while. He’s on the property for the duration of Temptation Island production.
Had a guest in with his family with a Trump hat. I wanted to punch him in the nose. He was polite and respectful so I was reciprocal. Best I could offer
I’m home my love, I’m home there’s Diamond Head
High tide or low tide
