There used to be a tree here. Just like the one in background. When our now 16yo grandson was a baby, we’d bring him down here to Holoholo Kai park and sit under that tree with lunch and cold beverages. Bummer that it’s gone
This is Holoholo Kai park at the far north end of Mauna Lani resort. Right next to Paniau. Used to come here in the early 90s. I was a sales rep for a liquor distributor. Would pick up a bento at Whaler’s general store in the King Shops and eat it here. Would see other reps here too.
Can only get up and move to Bobby Holcomb.
Many years ago I subscribed to Wine Spectator. That was until I became friends with a wine maker from Santa Maria California. He taught me to ignore reviews and form my own opinions based on my own tastes. I enjoy wine much more now.
The scene of the crime. I manager here at the Westin Hapuna 2016-2019. Through the Renovation. Great memories


My Dad used to say, you can justify anything if you want it bad enough. Trump et al are bent on world domination.
In the early 2000s I was building websites for small and medium sized local businesses and shopping centers. They were all built responsive to work on mobile. I walked away after about 6 years. It surprises me how many of those sites have never been changed, though still work and look pretty good.
When space travel was privatized, it just doesn’t seem special any more. Companies will ALWAYS be stockholders first.
Itʻs interesting when you look at a Pacific Ocean seafloor. The topography down deep may have contributed to breaking up the tsunami from the Kamchatka earthquake. Thereʻs a lot down there. We canʻt watch that in realtime.
