It’s the day before the Honolulu Marathon and Waikiki is filled with runners from all over the world! Last night at Lulu’s, there were participants who were obviously carbo-loading for the big day, and I spoke with a few runners from Japan who were so excited to be here! It was good to be back …
Another busy morning … the boys just got back from an early morning appearance on the KHON TV news to pitch our Lokahi Foundation mini-fundraiser at Lulu’s next Friday, Dec. 18th, from 6-9pm. This was sort of a last-minute idea that Nick came up with to try and help those in need during this holiday …
Man, it’s chilly this morning! Got up early since Carla had to go get an MRI down at Kuakini … she and Linda just got back and things seem to have gone well. Even the puppies were unusually quiet – I guess they knew that we had a different “routine” this morning so were on …
It’s late Tuesday evening, and I’m going to write a brief note before signing off and going to bed. These next two weeks are going to be very hectic – we not only have a bunch of performances scheduled, but also have recording deadlines to meet. And with Christmas right around the corner ….  …
Aloha kakahiaka! It’s Monday, Dec. 7th, and it’s the 68th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. There will be lots of news coverage and ceremonies to mark this tragic and historic event which was the start of World War II in the Pacific. Having been in Hiroshima a few weeks ago, and knowing the …
‘Morning all! It’s Sunday, Dec. 6th, and I’m about to go play squash before we take our bass player, Mark, to his surprise birthday party downtown. We told him that we had a gig today so I don’t think he suspects anything .. I hope! Mark turns 41 today, which is an important birthday for …
Good morning! We just got back from walking our puppies .. the winter mornings are just gorgeous here! Carla wasn’t feeling well again today so I was put back into the rotation. We performed last night at the Taste of Manoa over at the U.H. Campus Center … the food was pretty good! Today we’re …
Wow, it is an absolutely GORGEOUS morning here in the valley! The skies are cloudless and there’s a moist chill in the air as I watch the sun start to peek over the lush green mountains … awesome! I love the holiday season because the weather gets a little cooler and we start to have …
It’s Tuesday morning and I’m already in my office since I had an early morning breakfast meeting. I apologize for not finishing my blog last night, but it was such a boring Monday that there really wasn’t anything to talk about. Anyway, the winds have died down somewhat and have been replaced by torrential downpours …
Holy smoke! The wind is HOWLING! I can’t believe how strong the winds are … last night our house shook so much that I thought it was going to blow away! It’s also colder than Thanksgiving Day so I think the winds may be coming from a more northerly direction … brrrrr! I’m sure all …
