Some Old Pikchas


Just when I thought I didn't have anything to post today, Wendell's friend emails me nostalgic Hawaii photos.

Thanks Ross!

Oh my! I love these old photos of days gone by. Makes me wish I had the foresight to take pics of some of my favorite places from back in the day that I have yet to see. You posted a few that brings back a lot of memories of my hanabata and high school days... KC Drive In (especially with the car hop!), Chunky’s, working at the cannery! Thanks!

I love seeing photos of old Hawaii! I've been searching for photos of King Street, in the 50s and 60s, between University Ave and Kuhio School during Christmas. I remember large garlands would be hung from one side of the street to the other side. Even though I can somewhat picture it, I wish I could see a photograph of it. ~e

A bygone era. I never worked Dole Cannery like my classmates. Remember Chun Hoon Supermarket, I was a bagger. I believe, it was a $1.50/ hour.

Kat, we just took it for granted back then, yah.

Izsmom, me too, wish I had taken pictures before.

Cloudia, LOL . . . welcome!

E, would love to see that too.

Chet, I never worked cannery either. My first job was at Palolo McDonalds.

Hey! I see Da Termite Stadium across the street from Wigwam! My Dad's Sunday school class went to every game! Don't jump with excitement!

Da stands would Bounce!


Da termites might stop holding hands everyone said! .... ; )

And I remember when they dredged Ala Moana beach coral to fill in the Wet Marsh to build the Ala Moana Shopping Center.

I'm not just some random Haole Boy! .... ; )
