Front Street Memory

This week's photo shows shops along Lāhainā's famed Front Street from a 2009 photo. Hopefully, the town and its people will rebuild in the years to come. It may have been touristy, but it still held the small town charm. It will be interesting to see what the new Front Street will look like in the future.

Sheriffʻs Escort

Deputies from the Hawaiʻi State Sheriff's Department escorted this Boeing 737 that belongs to the US Department of Justice, and is operated by the US Marshals Service. The airliner made a stop at HNL, and was taxiing out for departure. They stayed until the 737 was airborne.

Si Woo Kim

In last year's Sony Open in Hawai‘i PGA Fedex Cup golf tournament, SiWoo Kim (of South Korea) won the tournament by one stroke, as Hayden Buckley missed the tying putt that could have sent the final round into a playoff. Kim is seen above, posing with the tournament trophy for the sports photographers. I got this shot after the broadcast that I was a part of ended.

Kukuihoʻola Island

Happy New Year!

Kukuihoʻolua Island is located off of Lāʻie Point on Oʻahu's north shore, and is noted for the hole in the middle of the island. During high tides and east swells, it gets battered by waves as seen above.
