Clean Islands

Last year I donated a ticket to a Warriors game to The Warrior Beat blog for a prize. The lucky winner was "curveball". He met us at the Tsai-ko-gate and brought his signature watermelon and Hawaiian chili pepper water (not for eating together) and jumped right into the blog ohana with both feet.

A lot of things happened in the year that followed, including the unanticipated loss of his wife Kristen, who had also become part of our ohana.
This year, curveball decided to become  Warrior Football season ticket holder and took the leap from the yellow section to the blue section with me.
A few minutes before the Wahine Football Clinic, slugger and I stopped by his workplace to drop off his tickets!

 

And what a workplace!
Curveball works on an awesome ship (shades of The Deadliest Catch!) that cleans oil spills in Hawaiian waters. He gave us a cool tour.

The ship has everything and everything is in it's place. We even got to see the inside.

Thanks, curveball! We'll see you next Friday for the season opener at Aloha Stadium!

The first trailer is out for the Cooley brothers' new indie- Ghosts Don't Exist. Thanks to their kindness and facebook, I am rather attached to this production staff and wish everyone the best success with this endeavor!
Catch it at a film festival near you!
