Yep. I thought about posting several songs from that album here. But I just got back from a ride and this song was still in my head.

Aloha Friday everybody!
Good tunes, good friends - one of life's best treasures.
Took a trip over to Kaneohe this morning. Here's a shot of early morning cloud covered Kaneohe Bay.
Been a pretty good last couple weeks. My daughter, (stepdaughter) was just named one of Hawaii's "40 Under 40" by the Pacific Business News. She has an awards ceremony next week where they'll name a Pacific News Young Business Leader of the year. Wish her luck. Bright young lady, at 26 she is President of Hawaii Junior Achievement. We're very proud of her!
Grandbaby is growing fast and new mom doing well. I should get a Facebook account. It might be a better way to stay caught up. These kids can't do anything in life without posting it on Facebook. I guess the similar can be said about me posting on HBT. I just like the limited exposure here.
My youngest daughter just finished her second year of college and got a summer job, that's a load off both of us. She provides in-home assistance to a handicapped lady. Sounds like she does everything from cooking and cleaning to helping her client deal with insurance companies. She's putting in 10 hour days the last few weeks but that should taper down to 2-3 hours a day by the time school starts back up this fall.
My son is getting ready for Afghanistan, he's excited. I have mixed feelings. Nobody else in the family is very happy about it. Understandable
I hate to even mention this as I'll jinx myself but I might have found a job. If all goes well I could be working within a few weeks and it's only about 10 minutes from the house!
I hope everybody has a great weekend filled with good times, BBQs and Home Brew!

Damn. It's been too long....passed pawn. I owe you some homebrew. I'll send that along when it's made. Had to take some time off brewing. I was fixing an electrical issue in my garage and took a fall off that ladder.
No it wasn't the fall that hurt me. It's how I broke my fall. An exposed nail....butt end was sticking out of my work bench to hang stuff on. It tore through the meat of my left hand..down to done..so I was out of it for a while.
Needless to say I didn't do any bottling.
Dan,
I'm glad things are going well. I hope everyone on this thread is well.
Gosh. I've been busy toying around with the possibility of going pro soon....hurts my brain. Red tape, red tape and money and red tape
Every time I taste a local beer that sucks I feel like I need to do something.

That's a great pic Dan.

First attempt at the concrete window sill was a big fat fail. I added some Portland cement to the bag mix and got what seem to be some good results:
Just put on some iron sulphate stain it should end up a tan to rusty brown color:

3 more days of school and my son get to have a summer as an 11 year old: [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eo8S3iFdzUc[/ame]
You should hear that on my brewshop sound system. I am going to find a disco ball when I am done here for the night.
Here is the stained window sill:
I am very happy with it. It will match all the colors of the tile we have planned. I may install it some day when there is time...
Love it! Bangles, Banannarama..Cindy Lauper. That is late to get summer break. My kids have been done for a few weeks already.

Nice work there Ishiavo. I'm pretty sure that would have ended up in the garbage if I made it.
Thanks bud. I like rustic...it is. It will look great once I get a chance to install it. The first one I made ended up in the garbage. Just try again
A song that you will all love I am sure:

That looks great Ischiavo! Will you have to reinforce the framing for the cement weight?
Arggg, grading a writing class takes forever.

Sounds like you've earned a cold brew.
I'm sitting outside in the front yard. The dogs and I got booted out of the house. Wife and her friend are inside making party favorites (whatever those are).

I just finished the grades, so now I have earned that brew. Just one as it is getting late for a Wednesday. Front yard in Hawaii with Dasher does not sound so bad
Thanks Dan. It is actually not that heavy and I know the framing is good because I built it
. I am going to set it level it on a bed of thin set mortar and trim up to it and around the rest of the window with ash. Next time you head out to the lumber yard make sure to get yourself a piece of ash Work is just crazy. I am very happy for it. It is making up for the slow spring very quickly. I had to email a few pics for a job and came across my coffee can wienie roaster (I promised to post a pic a while back).
I hope I can find the time for a few more hikes with the kids soon and get some more use out of it.
I have to finish my online code course now so I can keep my WI license. I only had three months to do it and the deadline is almost here...I can spell procrastination

Is that concrete window sill going on the inside?
Yes it is. Sort of like concrete countertops... Every window sill in my house is different. I have no idea why I chose to do that. All are wood until this one.
Time for some music eh? I always loved the guitar in this one:
Back to electrical code
