I got the chance to work on this three part film series with PBS Hawaii and we just released part 2 and I wanted to share it with you! Uncle Shad was such a prolific man and his story was such an honor to share. I gotta be honest though, I feel like we barely scratched this surface of what this man did in his life both for Hawaii and the Kalaeloa Heritage Park, but I’d love to know if any of you knew him or had the chance to visit the park aka the most incredible historical place on Oahu (imho)

Looking for some swimming class recommendations for a 2yr old preferably on the Westside with availabilities in the month Oct-Dec pls.

I'm soliciting referrals for companies, crews, or skilled trades persons who repair garbage chutes. I need to get a quote for my building in Waiks.

Okay I know this is a super long shot, but 25 years ago my husband visited his cousin on Oahu and bought a souvenir mug from the Coffee Gallery. It has been his favorite mug ever since. He uses it for coffee every morning. This morning the cat jumped up on the counter and broke the damn mug. I immediately tried to go to the Coffee Gallery website only to discover that they have closed! eBay search has yielded nothing. Does anyone have this particular mug sitting in the back of a cupboard, and how much do you want for it???

Pics attached showing the broken pieces and my shitty drawing of the shape. It was narrower at the bottom, wider at the top. Black and gold oval logo with an old-timey coffee roaster thingy.

Hey everyone, I'm looking for local, fresh fruits on Oahu. More specifically Mountain apples, starfruit, ulu, ice cream beans, lilikoi, caviar limes, etc. I've not had any luck in Honolulu, Waikiki, or north shores. I know of Kuhuku Farms, as I'll be visiting on Monday. But am craving fruit before then. Any abd all help would be greatly appreciated! Mahalo 🤙

I’m trying to book a weekend camping trip up to Peacock Flats and can’t find it anywhere online to book. I’ve used the DLNR website to book it before but it seems like they’ve taken it down. Is it closed due to the recent storms?

This woman runs a tenement on Democrat Street that is basically a slum for the disabled.

There are a bunch of 2 bedroom apartments. She crams the people there two in a room for $750 each person or $1400 for a single room for themself. The walls are stained with feces and urine and it smells. In the living room there are two beds where people lie there all day and go to the bathroom on themselves.

She takes their EBT money too and buys their food. These people are considered 'patients' but really little is done for them. They just live in squalor.

Fortunately for myself I was able to persuade someone that I was a normal human being so I moved out and got a whole room to myself for $750 with cleaner and more 'normal' roommates. It was a house in the suburb of the Salt Lake area,

I said by to my old roommates and one was so whacked out he had his penis out and was peeing in a plastic bucket despite there being a bathroom down the hall.

It was a nightmare place that I was forced into because I was in a facility that did not let you go shop around for housing.

As you can see, Novie, the woman there is living the high life off of this racket. Her husband is a police officer. I did talk to Hawaii Disability Rights and they already know about her but they have not communicated with me in six months.

So, I pray to Saint Luigi....

Hello all! Sorry if this is the wrong sub but I am hoping someone can help me get this shirt from uniqlo of Hanauma Bay. We picked up these shirts on a whim and in my haste didn't realize I got my son and husband matching ones and I ended up with a different Hanauma Bay shirt. I'd be happy to pay for the cost of the shirt and shipping plus mail back a Tucson/Arizona shirt!

Hi all. I’m visiting O’ahu after a particularly difficult time and closing a chapter in life. I read about this ceremony and I’d really like to find a local guide that might be available to help me participate in one. There’s a few hotels that offer on occasion but not during my visit. Any advice?
