Last day in Florida ….

It’s our last day in Vero Beach and we’ve had a wonderful time!  We played golf again today out at the John’s Island West course and us old guys lost to the young guns (Alex & Nick).  It was a beautiful, sunny day and the temperature was in the high 60s … it doesn’t get …

It’s cold & rainy!

Aloha from cold & rainy Florida!  It’s Monday morning here and the weather has changed from the beautiful warm sunny weekend to cold and wet!  We’ve been so busy since we got here that I haven’t had time to update my blog, but I will do my best to catch up!  We’ve been spending a …

We’ve arrived!

Aloha all!  After staying overnight in Las Vegas, we flew into Orlando, Florida this evening and then drove for 2 hours to Vero Beach.  We’re staying at Carla’s sister Pam’s home on John’s Island … it’s right on the beach and is absolutely fabulous.  To top it all off, she & her husband Ray have …

We’re off!

Howzit everybody!  We’re off to the mainland for a few days to attend Carla’s mom’s 90th birthday, so my blogs will be coming from the big island of America.  Gotta run, so Aloooohaaaaa!!! “D”

Wednesday, Jan. 20th

‘Morning all!  Got a busy day ahead of me .. meetings this morning for our new IOLANI retail store which is set to open this Spring, squash at lunch, radio show recording later in afternoon, and then my friend’s father’s funeral after that.  Whew! Anyway, we have a new houseguest – her name is Hoku …

Sake tasting!

I’m going to a sake tasting tonight at Hiroshi’s at Restaurant Row with the boys.  It’ll be a nice break from the hectic pace we’ve been working at for the last few weeks.  Did any of you in Nagoya listen to our radio show on Sunday?  It was our first one so if you did …

Busy Sunday!

I thought Sunday was supposed to be my day of rest, but not today!  We started off the morning by taking my mom to breakfast at Longhi’s at Ala Moana Center, and then Alex and I spent the afternoon in the recording studio laying guitar tracks for the new JVC Victor CD.  We’re now waiting …

Kani Ka Pila tonight

It’s Saturday which means we’ll be at Kani Ka Pila tonight.  We apologize for not being able to stream our ManoaDNA Live! from there, but we’ve always had trouble with their wireless network for some reason.  We’re also going to be in the recording studio this afternoon before KKP to work on several tracks for …

It’s freezing here!

Boy, it’s cold this morning!  It’s been like this the past few days and we’ve had to bundle up, especially in the evenings!  I know, I know … low ’60’s is nothing compared to the freezing weather some of you guys are experiencing, but we Hawai’i people are very thin-skinned!  But I will take this …

Sony Open

The first round of the Sony Open golf tournament began today at Waialae, so our Thursday group played out at the Klipper course on the Kaneohe Marine Corps Air Base.  Although it was a beautiful sunny day, the weather was a little cool due to the north winds that have brought a chill to the …
