Saturday's Random
You know they're moving back to the mainland because they're putting their appliances and furniture up for sale. Generally, you don't associate Waikiki with garage sales or yard sales but there's a few on the sidestreets in the neighborhood every week. It's actually illegal to use public telephone poles for your own personal classified ads section. The trick is to adorn your non-legal sign with a few balloons to cheer folks up on what happens to be a very voggy Saturday in Waikiki. The other week I saw this For Sale sign stenciled on a car's real window with the printing done just as professionally as those on a store's front window. Btw, how many more days of this voggy weather? You could mistake Honolulu for LA. ![]()




Worse than second hand smoke! And you can't get away from it! Will the anti-smkoing crowd now try to outlaw volcanoes?

Hi Nate- da Veil of Pele is how I view the vog. How about tossing the anti-smoking crowd into the volcano.

I got lucky the trade winds started blowing the day after I got there. It was awesome every evening to feel the wind come blowing off the pali. From the view I had on the 15th floor, it looks almost like the photos you post. We must have been pretty close to you Hope you had a good Saturday.

Hi Pehea 'Oe- yeah, and a full moon, too under clear night skies during your visit. Awesome, as you mentioned, that you might have possibly bumped into me while waiting for a light.
