Our fall so far

We went up to the Clemson game and had a great time with Sam and Kathy.  They are so nice to host us for the weekend.  The stadium always amazes us.  It was so loud.  They lost the game, but it was really fun.
Tyson and his friend Rich started the Amakua club at school.  Every other Thursday we have been going down to the beach.  Tyson teaches the kids to surf.  Rich teaches them scuba diving.  Then we roast hotdogs on the beach and eat smores.  It has been a successful club and we hope it continues to be a great thing for the kids to do.  This past Thursday was a special night.  Rich built a Hawiian style outrigger canoe.  Thursday night they had Chief Kamu come and we blessed the boat.  It was a fun night.
