November Already!

As usual, time has been flying by. October was a blur...lots of surf, work and appointments (Doctor's and Dentist's) and all's well.

Next week is already Hula O Na Keiki at the Ka'anapali Beach Hotel. This is always such an enjoyable event. We'll be participating in the Craft show, doing some workshops and watching the hula competition. I'll bring my camera......

In other news, a couple of weeks ago, the neighborhood girls came over with a bucket of chicks. "Aunty will you take care of these?" No, is my reply.....what am I going to do with baby chicks and a new puppy that loves to chase chickens?? Yet, the next day they return with two chicks for me.

I take them in, thinking it may be a good idea for 'Ehu to get used to chickens and not want to chase them. I buy the special lightbulb and some chicken scratch. But we vow not to become attached and purposely do not name them.
Well......wouldn't you know Thebrownone and Theblackone are now so tame they fall asleep in your hands and if you let them, will jump onto your shoulder and hang. They have us digging in the yard for bugs.

Some people are just crazy to have pet chickens!

Rowena said...: Aloha! I stumbled upon your blog while looking for hula instruments, and I just had to say how much I appreciated this post (I used to raise chickens too!), the post on Molokai and especially the one on halalu! Always nice to accidentally come across news from "home" when I'm wandering through the internet.

Long story short, I'm a born-n-raised Kauai islander but now make my home in northern Italy (6.5 years already) with my italian husband. We have friends here that adore the islands, so much so that it amazes me every time a hawaiian word or pidgin english gets thrown into the conversion. Italihawaiian actually comes out pretty nice!

Keep up the good work, and the next time I'm in the islands, I hope to be picking up a few extra things to bring back to Italy.; November 20, 2009 at 12:20 AM
Na Kani O Hula said...: Hi Rowena, Thanks for stopping by.
Italy...wow, long way from home. But the wine's good there huh...and the food ;) Hope to see you next time you're on Maui. Aloha!; November 20, 2009 at 3:22 PM
