Love this episode of PBS Hawaii Na Mele. Tony has so much respect for the history of Hawaiian Music. youtu.be/57Tb0SOV9…
When we walk at the Mauna Lani resort, we often stop at the Eva Parker Woods Cottage at Kalahuipua’a to chill. We heard all of this Ruckus coming from the Hau trees behind. Counted at least 8 Egret nests among 3 trees with the chicks making all the noise.

Have tried a few different AI / search engine products. None of them seem quite right. It’s like they’re trying to be too helpful and assume I’m ignorant about what I entered It’s almost easier to just deal with Google’s ads
Love the Atlantic writing about WAPO
A couple of thoughts on the town hall today with Rep Tokuda. Only a small % of (non-white) local people. Locals complain about hauole but then don’t show up. Also many used this forum to voice grievances with government in general. Many topics were very local with no connection to national issues
It’s funny that companies from Hawaii will often say they brought in an “east coast” consultant. What’s wrong with west coast consultants? Are they just not good?
In Hawaiian Hands: The Story of Reggae in Hawaiʻi. This is fascinating. I really liked the early Hawaiian/Reggae. Butch Helemano. It was just the next iteration. Hawaiian music was influenced by Big Bands, Jazz, Pop Music and others through the years.
2 more photos from 2022. Moonset / sunset. Honolulu from the Ala Moana hotel. I stayed there for a month for training
Replaced the binding on the book that came with the 1969 Hilo Hawaiians album Honeymoon in Paradise. The old binding was brittle and cracking off.
If you look at any list of the top Hawaiian musical artists of the past 75 years, Alfred Apaka near the top. He is an amazing talent, but also a top class entertainer. A pleasure to listen to
