My song about Kauai island

Many songs in Hawaii are written about Kauai, and this would be mine

Kauai, an endless beauty
where I always dream to be.

I have only the fondest of memories
that still visits me in a sweet dream.

Kauai, also called the Garden Isle,
a fitting a name as one would see.

Upon visiting it will bring a smile
and a heart filled with glee.

I picture the place called Eden
and that picture is painted clear when

I know that Kauai is Hawai`i's Eden
and a place I imagine in this world to be heaven.

Dance, Song, and Inspirational Message

This past weekend was one to remember.

It started on Friday evening when Vynn and I were fortunate enough to have been sitting in front of the tv channel surfing and come across the 89th Annual Kamehameha Schools Song Contest. It definitely was one of those "lucky we live Hawaii" type of moments! In this years contest, the students celebrated the music of John Kameaaloha Alameida. I guess the fact that I don't remember who the winners were of each division says something about how much that part of it mattered to me...but I do remember that the Sophomore class were my favorites and the Hoike was very entertaining. Vynn and I were very enlightened after the program.

The Tahiti Fete in Honolulu took place this past weekend, and from what I hear is the largest Tahitian dance competition in the state. Of course, naturally we were rooting for Big Island ---congratulations MERAHI Productions!! I heard they did great!

One thing that me and Warren were fortunate enough to do is see Nick Vujicic at the Sangha Hall in Hilo. Although he was born with no arms or no legs, he truly is one giant of a man! His life is truly not only about living without limbs, but living WITHOUT LIMITS!

In his message he mention that the largest crowd he has spoken to was 110,000, so we in Hilo were very blessed to have had a visit from this man. The turnout was very good though. The Sangha Hall was packed to the gills. I estimate that there were at least 1000 people there. Not bad for Hilo!

A care package from Hawaii...

These would be true tastes from home

Li Hing Mui crack-seed
it's something that can only be found in Hawai`i

Big Island Candies
it's a home town fave!

Rubber slippahs from Long's
in the mainland they're called "flip flops", but they aren't the same

Dried Mango
of course, seasoned with Li Hing Mui

Kona Coffee (peaberry)
There's no coffee like it in the world!

Frozen Poi
it's the ultimate taste from home, steam to de-frost and you're set!

Dried Ahi
it will go good with that poi!

DVDs like "The Braddahs" and one from "Augie T"
Again, it's something that can only be found in Hawai`i

Where are we with MS?

As a person who has been diagnosed with MS, I really get excited hearing about all of the new research and development being done for the disease. The progress sounds very promising, and there seems to only be more and more upcoming developments.

This is a very cool video clip

New Beginning

There definitely are a few blog-worthy moments in my life right now...





First would have to be the uprising of family on facebook. It seems that everyone from people in the distant forgotten past to the closest of loved ones has joined the ever popular social network site. Oh boy, the good ole Internet is just shrinking the size of this earth, every day!





Second thing worth a mention is a great concert that took place this past Sunday where what seemed like a thousand (or more) people came together to worship the Lord, along with the help of MercyMe. As soon as my time allows, I'll post up a couple of short video clips of that event on my youtube channel that I took with my camera. Wow, what a good fun time me and Vynn had at the concert with Vic and Denise.





The third and last thing would be the launch of finepointgraphic.com. It's coinciding with the start of my new business. It's an exciting new beginning, a constant work in progress and a fresh, new start.
