Asayama-san really likes the outdoor. so besides surfing, we look for things to do in the outdoor. yesterday, it was a visit to Manoa Gardens. a garden for the community. i’ve been up here a few times and always though it was a good idea to rent out garden space for the community. fresh kale. fresh soybeans. fresh flowers. fresh lettuce. fresh flowers. fresh sunflowers. just being here reminds me of my grandma’s garden. always filled with lovely flowers. i didn’t appreciate it back then, but i sure do now… then whenever i’m in Manoa, i go to my favorite Andy’s Sandwiches. and always eat the pastrami sandwich with minestrone soup. the best homemade soup and sandwiches on the island. then sitting down with the birthday boy having a joyful boys talk. it’s non-stop laughing all day long…
