Here's a close-up of the sign. Not much new to report. Found the wife of the contractor that built the Tur Mai Kai. She said she remembered the place well. My sister wrote her a nice letter with copies of the info I have found and copies of a few of the photos. My sister and brother-inlaw have contacted her twice and the second time she was kind of standoffish. I believe a family member was telling her whoever was one the phone was trying to run some kind of scam! Man, that hurts. I haven't pushed the matter. Maybe after a while we will give it another try. I also called every name in the phone book with the former owners last name. No luck on that either. I did a search of the state records and found that Mr. and Mrs. Lum have both passed away. Looks like a road to nowhere on the research end of things but I'll keep digg'n. Thanks
