We landed in Honolulu, Pier 6, and whiel there, I took my letter of intro given to me by Deight Long, to an old gal who lived in Lanakai. She and husband had built this wonderful house on the side of a cliff, right ove rthe rocks. I thuink he had passed on. In the living room they had 2 guest beds, both were matresses on big rocks with windows over looking mauka and makai! It was either the sunset or sunrise bed you slept in. I chose sunrise.. always liked to get up early!. Her garnd daughter was there too. It was quite an expereience. I go to Hawawai once ayear to odg sit fro niece and nephew on Big Usland, then, come to Kailua on Oahu to visit son and his family! I lived a year in th old red barn in Waimanalo. It was heaven! Am on my way back to Hawai'i nei april 19th, with 3 weeks in Kona and a week in Kailua ,Oahu! My bag is packed! I took sailing lessons from Capt. Kiko last year, on his double hulled sailing canoe. I bought my own 12 footer in Bora Bora in 1955. That is now hanging inthe "Top of the Wheel" in Lake Tahoe, I think! I feel like Hawai'i is MINE!!! My first child was born in Lahaina in the Territory, 2nd was 1st child born in Kaiser Hospital, when we lived on Block Islander called UAU, at Ala Wai Yacht Basin! Much ALLLLLOOOOOOOHA!!
