Aloha Ahi Ahi UFOhana,

Hope you all had sometime to enjoy the fabulous weekend weather and spend time with ‘Ohana during the holiday.

On behalf of Nohea and myself we both extend a heartfelt Mahalo Nui Loa to all of you that have made our past Vani/Kani kapilas so enjoyable and filled with warm Aloha. Mahalo, once again, to Lynnette for inviting her keiki to our events.

Below, images from this past Saturday.

Here’s an article about Hawai’i’s Paniolos. A short history, but very interesting. Mahalo to Linda Albion for passing this on. This may not be viewable in an email. If not, you may be able to download/view it here.

Next, a song composed and shared by Cindy Ross. As some of you may know she’s currently having issues with her health, which she feels may be caused by environmental conditions at her home. Please send her your mana and alohas.

Aloha Ahi Ahi UFOhana,

What great weekend it was. The sun was out, blue skies, puffy clouds, birds were singing . . .

. . . and Carolyn and Ken returned to Vendola Cafe!

After long months of battling her illness, along with Brudda Ken’s kokua and the UFOhana’s prayers, Aloha and healing mana, she’s ba-a-a-ck! Click above to view the images from last week.

. . . so wonderful to have them back. Mahalo Nui to you all for giving them such a rousing heartfelt welcome home. I guess you could say this UFOhana favorite says it all . . .

Mahalo Linda Albion for sharing this Beautiful Video.

Here’s a cool Taimane Uke Sighting from Brudda John . . . keep an eye on #16, we think he’s fan . . .

Mahalo John for the cool video of my Alma mater’s V-Ball Team!
