christmas photo - hulihe`e palace 15.dec.2002
Spent the better part of today working on this image. Everyone
wants an 8 x 10 copy. I am more than willing to get that many copies
made. But, I want to be sure that everyone looks as good as possible.
What we have is Etu'a Lopes and his hula halau. The young girls
compete in various hula competitions. Hula competitions in Hawaii
are every bit as serious as Pop Warner Football is in Texas. The
older women, the kapuna, just dance for fun.
After yesterday's concert Etu'a lined everyone up on the front
steps of the Palace so I could take a picture. It took him at least
10 minutes to get everyone arranged to his satisfaction. So, the
pressure is on for a great picture. Suitable for next year's Xmas
card.
In case you were wondering: Monday night football comes on at 6:30
here. It actually starts at 4:00 PM, but they save it.
One of Hawaii's representatives to Congress died before the election.
She won anyhow. (Hey if Strom Thurmond can be a Senator - why not
elect a dead lady to the House!) They are having a special election
to fill her seat. Steve Case's (AOL founder) brother is expected
to win.
