Whenever we don’t feel like cooking, we head on down to one of the many “drive-ins” here in Hawaii for a plate lunch. One of our favorites is the Loco Moco here in Ewa Beach.
Ironically, I don’t normally have the Loco Moco, which is rice with hamburger, gravy and an egg … but […]

Another one of the things that I’ve enjoyed about living here in Iroquois Point during my assignment here in Hawaii is that the elementary school is about a 5 minute walk from our house. The kids get up every morning, meet up with their friends and head off to Iroquois Point Elementary School. […]

One of the most popular attractions on Oahu’s north shore, for tourists and Hawaii residents alike is Waimea Falls park. It’s got a great botanical garden, a couple of miles of trails, and of course the famous falls.
As you can see in the picture, you can even take a dip in the pool […]

Ok, so I know it’s not the North Shore or anything, but I took my kids to White Plains beach near Barber’s Point yesterday. The kids had a great time playing in the sand, and shallow water near the shore. Obviously, most of my picture were of them. But, since I had […]

This is the first post in series I intend to do on Hawaii Beaches. For me, the best place to start is with the one that I know best …
I’ve been going to Bellows since I was 8 years old. When my dad was stationed at Hickam AFB in the late 70s, we […]

I know that’s kind of a subjective statement. Everybody has their favorite kind of Pizza … and their favorite places to get it from. There are many good pizza places here in Hawaii. But, by far our favorite place to get a slice here in Ewa Beach is Boston’s Pizza.

I just wanted to follow up on my earlier Fort Weaver Road Rage with a few pictures, and a bit of advice … (that I learned the hard way).
If you live if Ewa Beach, or have ever visited anybody down this way, the following picture will not be an unfamiliar sight to you …

One of my favorite places on the entire Island of Oahu is the Honolulu Zoo.
It’s not by any means a big zoo. But, it’s wide open, with lots of places for the kids to run around and play. And, the best part is, if the day’s a little too hot, Waikiki beach is right across the street.
Oh yea, and did I forget to mention that it’s probably the most affordable zoo I’ve ever been to? More ..
