Aloha Ahi Ahi UFOhana,

What a great Vanikapila session we had this past “May Day In Hawai’i” Saturday. Mahalo to all that attended and shared their Alohas. Especially to the OK-ers that braved the Blustery May Winds!

Click the incognito steel player below to view the online album. Wait a minute . . . doesn’t that hat looks vaguely familiar?

. . . he’s kind of like X-Files guy only instead of the truth it’s, “The Kolohe is Out There!”

Mahalo Nui Loa to Ken Emerson for sharing his Aloha and his 1930’s Vega Lap Steel this past Saturday. Totally amazing what you can do with a block of wood, some wires, steel strings, a 1900’s steel bar and a whole lot of talent! Lap Steel Genius . . . K=en²!

Me ke Aloha A hui hou and safe Journeys Brudda Ken.

Mahalo Carolyn for sharing Kolohe Kekahi with the UFOhana.

Btw, don’t forgot to RSVP a space if you’ll be joining us this Saturday in the backyard. Text me at 415-300-7804. Remember to text Nohea (Linda) at 415-572-1175 for song requests or comments if you can’t get on the Live Stream chat board.

Aloha All,

Forgot to mention an important event.

Because of my upcoming eye surgery on the 11th, the Elks has graciously moved our 2nd Friday of the month Kanikapila to the 1st Friday of May.

If you’ll be joining us please RSVP ASAP at this link for Dinner.

Also, this is a “Birthday Dinner” event, which means if you are an Elks Member and your Birthday is in April or May, DINNER IS FREE!

Mahalo to Joe, Kanela and the Elks for accommodating the UFOhana and sharing their Aloha with us.

We now return you to your regular programming . . .

Aloha Ahi Ahi UFOhana,

Well we’re on our way to May Flowers, though April Showers was kind of a bust. Looks like we’ll be on water restrictions once again. What did they say last time, “If it’s yellow let it mellow, If it’s brown flush it down?” I always get confused . . .

I understand that the travel industry’s picked up quite a bit. In fact, there’s a shortage of Rental Cars nationwide. Some are renting for as much as $500/day! I heard that in Hawai’i travelers have gotten around the shortage and high rates by renting U-Hauls for $20/day! I guess you could use them as a trailer home? Speaking of which, check out Ken’s new project below:

But wait! There’s more . . .

Have a safe trip up North Brudda Ken!

Meantime, back in Vanikapila land, images from last week….

Also a correction to Amey’s Art Showing I posted last week below:

Aloha Del and Nohea! Mahalo for including the info about Amey's Art show in Marin Open Studios at the AW in your blog😀So thoughtful of you- Amey says Thank you too- I did mess up , the dates Amey will be at The Artist Within for MOS are Sat 5/1 and Sun 5/2 she will be  there from 11-3 if you are in San Anselmo you are invited to stop by-and say hi- or her show will be up all May. 🎨Suz, Gary and Amey

And this Saturday’s Vanikapila link.

uKeKu

faint glow from centuries past,
to infinite black.

Ok, keeping it short and sweet this week.

Mahalo to the frontline Vaxers and to all of you that have been Vaxed so far. Let’s keep those numbers rising. Btw, if you’re in the neighborhood come by for an official UFOhana.org I’m Vaxed sticker.

Malama Pono,
