RE: My GO-TO for Vintage Silver
Hehehe... Mahalo's for noticing! I think that only those from the Islands refer to the US Continent as "mainland"... that is why it sounds very Hawaiian. Aloha, my sweet friend, @dfinney! And I make fantastic leis. My Dad (was a lawyer and) in the Airforce, stationed in Hawaii at JAG, met my Mom (who was an Army nurse stationed in Germany at that time) who was vacationing in Hawaii. They fell in love, Mom left the service to marry Dad, had my 2 brothers and then me... yup born and raised in Hawaii.
My uncle was a lawyer and he practiced mainly in Hawaii and in Guam. He and my aunt mostly grew up in Seattle and met here, but they moved to Honolulu after they got married. So my cousins were born and grew up there. (Iolani classes of 89 and 95.) Then my cousins came to Seattle for college and the whole fam moved back after the youngest was here for school. ☺️
Freshman year of college I went on a couple of dates with a Punahou boy too. 😄🌺
You being from Hawaii makes so much sense! The Hawaiian silver rounds, the video of you making a lei, the chocolate covered macadamia nuts you sent, your love of beach vacations! 😍 You can take a Hawaii kid out of Hawaii but you can never take the Hawaii out of the kid!
Thank you for sharing your family's story, my sweet friend @dfinney! I feel much closer to you. I appreciate your friendship.
