A delivery man had the best reaction to discovering a basket of snacks on a family's front porch.

Lots of excitement here a half-hour ago when a couple earthquakes hit. No damage so far, but lots of shakin'. 5.1 measured on Richter scale, somewhere between Kalapana and Volcano. Everything's fine.

Yesterday our house and upcoming retirement were featured in the Hawaii Tribune-Herald's (and West Hawaii Today's) At Home magazine section. Does anyone have a copy they would like to pass on to us, rather than throw it in the recycling bin? Please let me know if you do. Mahalo

We've just completed our 21st Merrie Monarch week! Everyone left this morning, and it was a wonderful group. The ladies who have made a slumber party out of their stay for the past 20 Merrie Monarchs brought husbands this year, and we were so happy to finally meet them. Just as fun as their wives!! Another group came for the first time, and managed to get tickets to the Miss Aloha Hula program, which they thoroughly enjoyed. Who wouldn't? Fresh flower lei, "fruit salad" hairdo, crowd-watching, cultural fashion show in the audience's apparel. The craft fairs were phenomenal! Downtown shops went all out. Several thrift stores save up their Hawaiian wear donations (like Sig Zane Designs, Tori Richard, etc.) all year to bring out during Merrie Monarch week. Mahalo!!
