Yesterday @ Kapiolani Park. Cool Park!
Happy Labor Day in Hawaii! 6:20am.
Small Summer in Hawaii continues.
Ala Moana waist high, maybe bigger at Rockpiles and Kaisers.
Diamond Head biggest at shoulder high but very windy.
Strong tradewinds at 25mph.
Cloudy morning, Sunny afternoon. Lots of rainbows!
Have a wonderful day!

hello, what a weird weather day. super cloudy and rainy morning, then got sunny, then cloudy, windy, and dark again. in fact, it’s storming outside my house and actually pretty cool. gosh, i love this weather. finally i’m cooled down. had a lot to do today but managed to jump in the water for a few waves. secret spot of course because today is sunday. then did a small photo shoot this morning with alyssa. got some nice photos.

only had 10 minutes to spare and i was hungry. skip lunch or eat somewhere fast. fast and friendly equals rainbow drive-in. guess what i ordered.

a locomoco bowl! i use to eat these every single day on the way to work when i was 17 years old. i worked in a little parking booth in a waikiki hotel parking lot. i use to let me surf friends park for free and when they came back from the beach, i use to be so jealous. i worked 6 days a week from 7-5pm. OMG! i’m glad i woke up and went to college. but eating this locomoco reminded me of the hard times and turning point of my life. it use to cost $2.15 but now $3.95. that’s inflation!

then tonight i felt like eating something local. so went to eat the best oxtail soup on the island. it was so good! now it’s bedtime.

last, i dug deep into my iphoto for some old photos and found this one. the young alyssa wooten with shinny teeth. i told her today that i was going to post it and i’m sure she’s pissed off now. but hey, i like this photo. this is the young alyssa that has grown into a very successful young woman. go-alyssa!

Take a guess.
It’s been a long time.
