We don’t have county rubbish pick up in Hawaii County. The primary private `opala company in west Hawaii is PFI. The pick up day is Monday on Alii Drive Auwe Pilau loa

We never really had public shootings in Hawaii. Since SCOTUS gutted gun laws it’s almost daily.
Always had drug and criminal shootings
Just found the original recording of Hanohano Hanalei by Alfred Alohikea (the songwriter) from 1928. It’s the only recording of the prolific songwriter solo. He was born Sept. 10, 1884 & Died Sept. 15, 1936, he also served in the Hawai’i Territorial Legislature representing the Island of Kaua’i.

Just came across this interview with Ainsley Halemanu. Blast from the past. He played for us at the Princess Garden bar in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center in the middle of Waikiki in the last 80’s, I was GM. He’s family to my ex-wife. Quite the entertainmener and a character.
Immediately thought of this song when we rounded the top of Hawaii Island approaching Hawi and the Kohala Inuwai Ka makani was blowing strong.
Ana `ole Ka makani iā Kohala Boundless is the wind of Kohala❤️

After the Pu`ukohola Heiau and Spencer Beach Park, we decide to go up the road 20 more miles to Hawi for lunch, coffee and some shopping. Lunch at Kohala Grown Market was awesome. 100+ mile road trip was what the Dr ordered
After the Heiau we went next door to Samuel M Spencer beach park. Named after a Judge and county supervisor from the early 1900s. Haven’t been here since we moved out of Waimea in 2008. Great place for camping and family functions
Today’s adventure was going to the Pu`ukohola Heiau S of Kawaihae. Many Hawaiians consider it the capital of Hawaii Island. There are other Heiau on this site, but this is the primary one. The visitor center is nice and they have a great video. I haven’t been here for 20+ years.
The GOP will be up for a rude awakening when they realize that even they aren’t in Black MAGA’s plans
Did Trump just actually say that these immigrant killers make our killers look good? WTF. There’s no shock value to what he says.
The final missing piece to complete my Peter Moon band collection. I have it going back to early Sunday Manoa

The latest season of Temptation Island was filmed at the hotel I work at and all over Hawai’i Island. Never seen it. My wife came across it on one of the channels. We tried watching to see the sets etc, it’s an unwatchable show.
The US media is complicit. I have a hard time getting bothered that they are geting kcicked out the White House tall tale sessions. Change my mind by reporting the protests in every state.
My Dad was lobbyist in Hawaii representing small local businesses. He would get copies of bills in the legislature during session. He would give my brothers and I “keywords” to look for in bills. We’d each get a stack. We were his early form of search engine.
