Manoa Rain

It’s another windy and rainy morning in Manoa, and the puppies are going crazy ’cause they can’t go for their walk.  I’m going down to the club to play squash with my buddies in a few minutes, so I’ll continue this blog after I get back if I don’t finish.  My right shoulder is still …

Game’s back!

Happy Aloha Friday! Finally played a decent round of golf yesterday afternoon … shot an 80 with two “birdies” and two “buzzards” and finally managed to win some bets!  Golf is such a fickle game … one moment you can be playing like a PGA pro, and then all of a sudden you’re duffing shots …

I’m losing it ….

‘Morning, peeps! I must really be losing it in my old age … it’s becoming more and more difficult to remember people’s names and it’s so embarrassing!  Last night at Side Street Inn, I started calling the bartender Walter instead of his correct name, Stuart … which wouldn’t have been a problem except that I’ve …

Carla’s home!

Good morning, peeps! Carla arrived home yesterday exhausted but elated after a very successful trip to Japan, and I want to thank everyone for all the love and support you gave her while she was there.   I especially want to send a very special mahalo to the Taguchis for taking such good care of …

It’s HOT!!

Ugh … the winds turned southerly yesterday and the hot, sticky weather has arrived!  It was really hot Friday night at Lulu’s … I wore one of our light rayon shirts thinking I’d be nice & cool.  Wrong!  Should’ve worn one of our IO-Sport shirts … even though the fabric is slightly heavier than rayon …

Ho hum …

Another mellow Thursday … watched part of the British Open this morning … thought Tiger was really going to shoot well, but he kinda faded on the back.  Leader Adam Scott seems to be doing well … should be interesting since his caddy Steve Williams used to be Tiger’s caddy before they had a falling …

Tuesday, July 17th

Hi peeps, Carla left for Japan last night with the usual last-minute scrambling that always happens whenever you’re going on a trip.  Made it to the airport with time to spare, though, and after dropping her off I went to meet a couple of friends at Side Street before heading home.  My week is looking …

Japan-bound!

No … ManoaDNA is not leaving for Japan this time, but Carla will be.  She departs today with Skyler Kamaka, Miss Hawai’i 2012, to attend the International Fashion Fair at Tokyo’s Big Sight along with 10 other Hawai’i vendors.  On Saturday, she and Skyler may go to Yokohama to visit the Hawaiian Holiday store in …

Sunday Morning

Aloha, friends! It’s another Sunday morning here in Manoa as I sip my hot DD coffee and watch the puppies practically inhale their breakfast.  Gotta get ready in a couple of hours to go out and join the DNA Golf Club out at Coral Creek … should be fun even though I hate playing on …

Aloha “Friday the 13th!”

Whoa … it’s Friday the 13th!  Seen any guys with hockey masks and chainsaws running around lately??  Muahahaha!!! Ok, enough of my sick humor … so it’s another gorgeous day up here in the valley … a little rainy and windy but very cool.  Nice!  My day’s kinda mellow … nothing scheduled except for Lulu’s …
