I drove by Aina Hina shopping mall today and was totally shocked. OMG, the huge historic monkeypod tree fell! That tree has been there for over 50 years. I remember going to my grandma’s house passing by that tree all the time. It was pretty sad seeing that.
I also passed by Kahala Foodland and when I walked by the poke section, I was surprised on how good everything looked. It looked so fresh that is started to get hungry.
So I order a poke bowl. A combination of ahi Hawaiian and spicy tuna maui onion over hot rice.
The result? That was by far the best poke bowl I’ve eaten in a very long time. Possibly the best on the island.
I was cleaning up my closet and found a box of old photos. So funny to see these kind of old school photos. I was such a small kid.
I think I was about 15 years old in this photo taken back in about 1982. Nobody believes me but I was the smallest kid in my class. I use to always get picked on so surfing was my freedom. I would have either died or went to jail without it. My friend Holli use to pretend she was my mom and wrote letters to my teachers saying that I was sick. Then I’d park my bike at Carter’s house and go surfing during school hours. That’s how much I loved surfing, and still do…
