Ukulele Friends Ohana

BOT:

Aloha UFOhana,

I hope you’re all staying safe and dry.

Yet another rainy day of flooding, high tides (hope you’re high and dry Toni and Lois), fallen trees (hope you’re ok Melann), fallen fences (I’m working on that), flying/missing skylights (good luck with your UFS Ralph) and yet Aloha Spirits were also high this past Saturday.

Mahalo nui loa to those of you that braved the elements and shared your Aloha with us.

Check it out below.

And we get to do it all over again this Saturday. I hope we have better weather then, but do be careful and plan according. Click below to join us in Cyber Ohana Land or click here to register if you’ll be joining in person us at Vendola Cafe.

And speaking of “Seconds”, this week is the second Friday of January, which means we have been invited to the “First” Elks Lodge Dinner / Kanikapila of 2026. Click below to RSVP a dinner and do bring an Ukulele while you’re at it.

Sounds like a great dinner (as usual) Joe! Mahalo!

like an endless stream,
thoughts and memories flowing,

As they used to say in Hill Street Blues . . .

Aloha ahi ahi UFOhana,

I hope you’ve all been keep warm and dry out there.

We had an intimate crowd this past Saturday, which was actually our last Vanikapila of the year. But inspite of the cool weather, we still managed to serve up some warm Aloha for that cold day. Thankfully we had break from the rain.

Check it out below.

cross a distant point,
slowly creep back to the light,
night keeps her embrace.
