Thank you for displaying our statue. It is the only 100% internet funded statue in the world. Pictures of the dedication ceremony can be found on the fanclub site.
A funny story about filming. The casting director would wander town handing out cards to locals inviting them to be an extra on the show. Well, it seems that the same people were used over and over again. Lenny Freeman stood up on the set oe morning and yelled “If I see the doorman at the Kahala (Mandarin) in one more scene somebody is getting fired!”

Awesome, I’m really looking forward to Restaurant Week! A bunch of restaurants are offering discounts and such, personally I’m hitting up Town Kaimuki, where they have course selections at a price of $20.09. Mahalo!

My mom and aunt started going to Hawaii in 1962, after Mom and Dad divorced. That started a life-long love affair with the islands, and they went back nearly every year. Mom became “famous” for the blouses she wore everywhere, because every year she brought back at least half a dozen new ones (she only bought muumuus until women began to wear slacks more commonly). Then she started buying tropical fabric there also and making her own during the years she couldn’t get there. I picked up the “Hawaiian” blouse habit several years ago myself, because they are so lovely, and in So. Calif. they don’t look out of place.
