good evening. boy, what a difference in the weather. back to our paradise weather pattern. took a drive out to the east side early this morning…
it’s been a while since i seen clear skies. i kind of got excited… had my board and spear in the car so either way, i was going to get wet….
there was this little perfect chest high left breaking off that island. if you live here, you know where that is. if you don’t, sorry, can’t say where it is…
surf/dive. dive/surf. or what the heck, do both. that’s what i did this morning. only in hawaii… got some dinner tonight so it’s all good…
came back home and stopped by the gas station. then this truck pulled in with a wild pig on the back…
these two hunters with their dogs went up the mountain near my house and caught this pig. i’d say 100lbs or so. enough kalua pig for a big party….
for those of you who don’t know how people hunt in hawaii. here’s one way. raise some dogs, let them loose in the mountains, they find the pig and trap it, then the hunter goes with the knife and stabs the heart. kind of sick but that’s the way they do it here. or another way is to take a bow and arrow and shoot it. both ways work. this is part of the hawaiian culture here. the more i think of it, kalua is one lucky pig….
and last, the 2007 honolulu marathon and fireworks start tomorrow at 5am. don’t go near the course or you will regret it. 27,000 runners so stay away. i know a lot of people running it this year and now i kind of want to run it too. maybe my goal for next year? i have to talk to my knees about it first….. anyway, for all of those running the marathon, ganbatte ne!!! i’ll be cheering you on from my bed… goodnight….
