Diamond Head Mortuary Backside

The pathway behind Diamond Head Mortuary is a particularly relaxing one, very cool and shady after a long walk in the sun, and I love the glass mosaic "windows" which appear in intervals along the way...

...when the sun hits it directly from behind, the mosaic lights up and makes for a vibrant display!

Drizzly Mililani

 Another drizzling and overcast day in Mililani, perfect for walking around and not having the heat of the sun on your back!! The brief sprinkles of rain only helped keep things cool as I made my way to grab some lunch!

Aliiolani Elementary School

I attended Aliiolani Elementary School in the early 1970's, and in 2008 or so, I went back to the old school and took these nostalgic pics. LOTS had changed since then, but it still brought back the memories I spent there! Transferred over from by languishing FLICKR page.

Below: "A" Building. This housed classes for 3rd and 4th grade.

Below:"F" building which had 5th and 6th grade (also some 2nd grade)

Kindergarten Classrooms

Cafeteria

Basketball Court where the old Auditorium once stood.

View into Palolo Valley

Parking where the old Music Building once stood.

 They called these Rooms 13-14, where I had 1st and 2nd grade.

JPO Room.

The school Library where I spent many recesses and after-school hours!

Health Room

Main Office

Such a fun, nostalgic trip down memory lane for me. I recently walked by the school a few weeks ago and was surprised by how much MORE it had changed. Now completely gated and fenced in on all sides to keep intruders out, Ah, such a sad sign of the times.

Mililani Restaurant Usual

 Just grabbing an early lunch at good old reliable Mililani Restaurant, with my usual: Teri Meatball plate Lunch with Macaroni Salad!!

As it was early there was lots of free space, but that didn't last long! Soon ALL the tables were filled and it was time for me to go!

Chilly Leahi Walk

 A Chilly and Blustery late afternoon walk this evening. A very sombre and lonely vibe as most people opted to stay in and keep warm, but I really loved it!

Times like these I feel like the whole town is for myself and my thoughts!
