Mauna Kea looking as majestic as ever. She was here before anyone was here and will still be here when we’re all gone.

Ok ‘nough of that shenanigans. Came to Aneho’omalu bay for some simple swimming. Stress level down trying to keep grandson’s safe. There were rescues of kids washed out in the current and rip tide. The worst thing in a rip tide is fighting it. Just float and wait for help.

Couple of big sets sent people scrambling. Now they know why we set up camp more mauka. Local knowledge.
It’s really pumping down at the south side of the beach. The lifeguards should get hazard pay today. When you’ve seen someone drown in big surf, it changes your level of respect.
We got to Hapuna. Not monster surf, but mother ocean is definitely in motion. Big time currents and rip tide. I don’t really have fear, but a ton of respect for the ocean. Letting our grandsons play in the white wash
Gonna take our Grandsons up to Hapuna beach and take a chance with the high surf warning. If it’s too big, we’ll go down to Anaeho`omalu bay or Mauna Lani.
Last post today. I grew up in Hawaii. Since small kid time, I ate the same foods, sat in the same classes, played on the same sports teams & hung out after school with all of the other local kids. Local people who meet me see me as one of them. People who don’t just see me as a haole. Their loss

Waikiki was an amazing place for island music in the 70s. Bonus. You could walk Waikiki beach at night see the artists playing at thr beachside bars all the way down the beach.

When I was in high school on non sports pratice nights, my freinds and I would seek out live island music on O`ahu. There was always someting besides Waikiki. Pearl City, Kaneohe, Ranch House Aina Haina. There was a bar in Wahiawa that had live music. Peter Moon played there in the 80s on Wenesdays
We weren’t sure about buying the extended warranty on my wife’s Hyundai Elantra in 2016, but it paid off today. $2000 repair for $100 deductible. We used the warranty two other times, one for hydraulic gate lifts, so we came out ahead.
Always loved his style and edge.

My wife left a single doctor practice making real good money 12 years ago to work for a big insurance company. She did this for security. If the doctor decides to quit or move, you’re screwed. These people making a living on TikTok are like that single Doctor practice. Btw that Doctor left Hawaii
This Kahuano Lake Trio album released in 1964 still sounds amazing. 60 years ago

I’ve been at the volcano when it’s doing this. Sounds like to jet engine.
