Ry Cooder is in this original album center spread along with the rest of the boys. This album was recorded in a lava rock house on the slopes of Mt Hualalai at Puu Waa Wa`a Ranch. They loved the acoustics and hauled 2000# of equipment up the house.

I remember seeing Palani Vaughn and the King’s Own at Del Webb’s Kuilima resort (now Turtle Bay) in 1979. It was chicken skin.

Breakfast hack. Cut frozen French fries to make breakfast potatoes

Most people think of the Sunday Manoa as Peter Moon and the Bros. Cazimero (3 albums). There were actually 2 previous albums. “Meet Palani Vaughan & The Sunday Manoa” (Peter Moon, Albert Kalima, Cyril Pahinui & Palani Vaughn) & “Hawaiian Time " (Peter Moon, Albert Kalima and Bla Pahinui)

Gavin Newsom’s MAGA Drift Is Here

Changing weather gifted us a cool(er) overcast morning. Great for a morning walk

Saw a posting for Store Manager for Popeye’s Chicken Waikoloa. It’s coming, finally.

This morning I discovered that our internet was down last night after we went to bed. Saw notifications from apps. It was off for about 4 hours. Just enough time for my smart plugs to get dumb and have to be reset. Annoyed.

Other Kailua Memories. Jeanlu Toys, Craig’s Bakery, Cornets, Kress, Kailua Drugs, K-Lei Radio, Kailua Drive-in, Andy’s Drive-in, original Kalapawai Market, Foodland on Kailua Dr. the spooky road by Kawainui marsh. Riding bikes all over town

Small kid time, we lived on Kainalu Dr in Kailua. Went to Kainalu Elem. Played Little Lg. at Aikahi Pk. Cub Scout leader was up Kalama St. Went to C&C Summer fun at Kailua Pk. Spent free summers days at Kailua Beach, jump off the bridge by Buzz’s. Go to Foodland on Kailua Ave. Great memories

Thinking we get a bunch of non students to protest on campus

…and just like, episode 12 is pau. www.youtube.com/live/oG5z…

Then went next door to the locally owned West Side wines and picked up this beauty. Keeping it local.

Saw an interview with Sam the other night. Haven’t read this. Bought from a local book store. No Amazon for me

Ordered an album on eBay and this was also in the box, guessing for packing and stiffness. Did not know the Brady bunch had an album. Though I did see Bread in concert in 1972 at the HIC

Created a spreadsheet, as nerds do, looking at every iteration of our retirement. With no SS, we would be hard pressed to stay in Hawaii and would burn through our retirement pretty fast.

Feeling the movie Civil War is more and more plausible.

It’s cute when I see people just discover pour over coffee after getting there the long way around

We’ve been using that method for years. Makes perfect consist coffee daily. Only variable is the first cup with a new coffee.

I guess the MAGA train of thought is if you find a little wood rot on the corner of your house, burn the whole thing down and live in a tent.

On the news this morning, a Korean Chef, cooking Italian food, in Ferarri dealership on an island in the middle of the Pacific, perfect
