It's been really windy lately, but we hiked Makapuu anyway since it's whale season. They closed the trail to dogs for a short while, then after much protest from all the dog lovers of Oahu, they reopened it for dogs, as long as we use leashes and pick up (we always do anyway). Here's some pics.
Last night was the Honolulu Symphony Ball. The theme was Ports of Call, and dress was either black tie or ethnic formal costumes. There was a silent and live auction. The man in the striped tux is Jimmy Borges, an extremely talented singer whose work includes tributes to Frank Sinatra (he's the only one ever granted full access to Sinatra's collection), and Tony Bennett once said Jimmy is one of the best singers he's ever heard. He is a legendary jazz artist and his early film career included regular appearances on Hawaii Five-O and Magnum PI. He got up and sang a song for us at the ball. Fun was had by all.
