Just Some Random Beach Photos from the Summer

Here are some random pictures of the girls and some of our friends from this summer.

Hiking Kolekole Pass

Last Saturday, we went on a short family hike. It had been a long and busy week, so we decided to get out of the house and away from everything still waiting to be done. We need to do that more often! We went and hiked part of Kolekole Pass. For you history buffs, Kolekole pass is where the Japanese initiated their attack on Pearl Harbor. They aircraft used the mountains to mask their approach, and then flew through the pass to attack Wheeler Army Air field. This prevented the Army Air Corps from launching any type of aircraft and possibly interfering with their plans. The pass is only a few miles from our house and offers a great view on the central Oahu plains and part of the leeward coast. Alison took the camera and here is the evidence.

The One Semester Spanish Love Song

This has been around for a while, but I don't know how many of you have seen it. If you have ever taken a semester of spanish you will toatally get it.

Enjoy!

Traitor

I went with Alison to see Traitor this weekend. I really liked the movie and recommend it with a little reservation. The language is a bit stronger that I would have liked :( , but it didn't have gratuitous violence or gore :) . I was quickly absorbed into the movie and thoroughly enjoyed it. I do concede that the storyline might be a bit slow for some, but I think that it was just right. Let me know what you think if/when you see it.

Why is this necessary?

When did it become a requirement for newscasters to broadcast from inside every storm? I understand in the early days of broadcast television news it was something new, but it's not new anymore. Please spare us. Everyone is sick of it. Which is why everyone makes fun of it. Its not necessary or informative! Give me the warning. Pass along helpful tips on preparation. Show the projected, but get that idiot in the wind off the screen. This article pretty much sums it up.

High Chance of Blowhards

By the way, don't tell dad :) . Oh, and Geraldo Rivera is an idiot!
