The winds are back!

It’s Sunday evening and I’ve just taken a nice hot shower after a grueling round of golf out at the Hawai’i Prince golf course.  It looks like the strong winds that hit us over Thanksgiving Day are back again and it was extremely windy out on the golf course today.  We all struggled with our …

Long weekend

It’s Saturday morning on a long Thanksgiving weekend.  Lots of leftovers from Thursday’s feast and lots of college football on TV, which means I’ll probably be spending the day lying on the sofa and stuffing my face!  UH plays Navy tonight at Aloha Stadium and the boys are all going to the game to tailgate.  …

After the feast!

Howdy, peeps!  I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving Day yesterday!  The boys and I went to play golf in the morning while Carla & Linda made preparations for Thanksgiving dinner.   Boy, the wind was REALLY strong yesterday – I heard that we had gusts close to 50 mph!  It was blowing so …

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!  The strong and gusty tradewinds have returned and are knocking down my avocados!  I just got back from playing golf with my buddies at Waialae this morning, and the winds were quite fierce out on the course.  The morning started off pretty calm but the winds started picking up around mid-morning and …

Thanksgiving Eve 2009

Aloha, everyone!  It’s like the calm before the storm … our house is quiet since it’s early in the morning, but in a couple of hours or so it’ll be humming with activity as Carla & Linda start getting ready for tomorrow’s Thanksgiving Day feast!  The boys & I are responsible for cleaning the porch …

MDNA radio!

Good morning all!  It’s Tuesday, and we’re two days away from Thanksgiving!  We had a meeting with our manager, Ann, who flew in last Saturday and met us last night at Paesano’s in the Manoa Marketplace.  That woman is amazing – I don’t think she ever sleeps, and yet, she’s always so upbeat and on …

Calm before the storm …

What a quiet Monday morning!  The strong winds have finally gone, and it seems like the neighborhood’s getting a late start.  Oh, no wonder … it’s only 6am!  All three puppies slept with us last night since Linda is dog-sitting for a friend of hers out in Portlock.  I forgot how crowded it gets with …

DNA golf today!

It’s Sunday and aloha kakahiaka to all of you!  We did not perform at Kani Ka Pila Grille last night because we played for a wedding over at the Moana Surfrider Hotel.  It was a small, intimate reception with the bridal party, close friends and family enjoying some great food and music from ManoaDNA!  We’d …

Weekend …

Good morning!  It’s Saturday and I got up rather early … must have been the Liliha Bakery pancakes that Mark and I ate last night after our gig at U.H..  The last time I ate at Liliha Bakery was a few years ago when I was still performing with Cecilio, but boy, did they taste …

Aloha Friday, Nov. 20th

Aloha friends!  I know, I know … I’m sorry I missed Thursday’s entry!  I was on the go from 6:30am yesterday and didn’t get home until 7pm.  Then our internet connection started doing some weird stuff so I couldn’t access our website to input my blog!  Anyway, the reason we were up so early was …
