Saturday morning in Waikīkī: Just a few of our closest friends tackling Earlier Detection in Lung Cancer in Hawai‘i, presented by the University of Hawai'i Cancer Center. Mahalo to the donors who make important initiatives like this possible!

✈️ Day trip to Maui for a funeral. Neighbor island travel is usually NBD, but the Kona low made things so turbulent as we passed south of Moloka‘i, HA canceled water/juice service. Which is fine, bc I already cannot handle those peel-back lids without spilling on a smooth flight, n/m this 🫨 kine.

I spend a not insignificant amount of time stuck in traffic on Lunalilo Street alongside this tree at Pi‘ikoi Mini-park every weekday morning. Left: Friday morning, after what seemed like half of it had fallen into the road, during the Kona low-pressure storm. Right: Saturday night bald spot. 😆

Crazy weekend in Hawai‘i between the harsh weather, nearly islandwide power outages due to the weather, confusion over what’s open because of said outages … oh yeah, and whack scorekeeping/officiating at tonight’s makeup UH Men's Volleyball game! Like … what? Nobody knows. But we make our own fun. 😆
