VISITORS - AUG AND JULY

Another busy end to the summer with more family and friends visiting from the mainland. In July of 2007 we lost our grandfather. He lived a full life and I was fortunate to see him before he left this world. My cousin Mike from New York and my Uncle Ernie and Aunt Mary from Michigan came for the funeral. We took our grandmother to "Bali By The Sea" at the Hilton Hawaiian Village for dinner. Mike is also a top age group cyclist.
Then last month my good friend Andy brought his girlfriend to her first visit to Hawaii! In 1999 I met Andy on a Bicycle Tour across the U.S.! Our little cycling group formed and we were known as the "Hammer Head Group"! I took Andy and Trish to their first Hawaiian Luau at Paradise Cove at the Ko'Olina Resort. It was a BLAST! I think Trish found a new drink called Volcano!

Then a busy weekend with the Blue Angels at Kaneohe Marine Air Station Air Show. Had to do the Coast Guard booth and hand out freebies to all these people for 9 hours! Next week my cousin Steve and his family is arrives from Pennsylvania. Steve is Mike's younger brother and is also a very fast competitive cyclist. I guess our family is cursed with the cycling disease!
