How's it 'defendhawaii'? Welcome to a great site. I'm from the Garden Island, Westside boy in Waimea. There are a few of us 808'ers here, but most are low key, Hawaiian Style. Aloha.

Aloha DefendHawaii!

Always glad to see another Hawaiian on board! Even though Hawaii is so small, we have not yet managed to get all the Hawaii guys together for a shoot and BBQ.

Let's leave it up to M1A06819 (Lester) the "organizer" to get it going.

Are you from Pahala or Naalehu? I love fishing Kawa bay and used to fish there lots!

Anyway, get that '14 barrel smoking and Welcome aboard!

Aloha,

Tom O.
