"Remote" Punaweb party? - ArtM - 08-21-2007 I was wondering if there were any Punatic wannabees who would like to attend a remote Punaweb party in the Santa Cruz, CA area. Please post or e-mail me so I can get a feel for interest level. If there's enough interest, I'll coordinate a party!

When I lived in Phoenix I got together with friends at a local Hawaiian Restaurant ("Moki's" ![]() Carrie "All I can say about life is, Oh God, enjoy it." Bob Newhart RE: "Remote" Punaweb party? - emorata - 08-21-2007 there are a few hawaiian places in the city or south city area if your willing to do this halfway since i'm up in sonoma and there are a few punawebbers in the greater bay area for centralized meeting at a local hawaiian restaurant....even quite a few L&L's or Ohana Grills noel RE: "Remote" Punaweb party? - mella l - 08-21-2007 In San Francisco I believe there is an L and L or some such famous Hawaiian fare restaurant. Read about it in the paper quite a while back. That would be half way point from Chico to Santa Cruz! We're in if half way is the case! What a fun idea, thanks Art! mella l RE: "Remote" Punaweb party? - punagirl - 08-21-2007 Hey Art. It is a great idea. You might even want to throw the invite out on some of the other Hawaiian forums. We started doing parties like this in Atlanta about 5 yrs ago and I have made tons of friends through it. There are three couples that we met through these parties, David M & Sopie are one, which have remained our good friends to this day. We have watched about 40 people go through the process of considering or planning the move. It has been quite a learing experience to help pack their containers, visit when we are on island (& some even insist we spend one night of our trip at their house) and listen to their "what they would do differently" tales. Through this group that has already moved we have networked and will know lots of folks once we make the move. Funny, they all say they miss me terribly but none of them are sending checks my way to help get my renovations on my house here finished so I can move! ![]() You will have a great time and make some great friends. And you can talk about Hawaii all you want and nobody will mention how expensive it is, you can't buy land there etc!!

RE: "Remote" Punaweb party? - rbonplaza - 08-21-2007 Art, seems that Ed and I are the closest to you folks (in San Jose, and not moving to Puna until next year at the earliest) so let us know what you finally come up with! -Ralph RE: "Remote" Punaweb party? - lotus - 08-21-2007 There's a really great restaurant in Berkeley called the Ginger Island Cafe. I can't remember what street it's on, but they have THE BEST home-made ginger ale and mixed potato fies (including purple potato) on the planet! I don't live in California anymore, or I would be at this party no matter where you have it ![]() RE: "Remote" Punaweb party? - emorata - 08-22-2007 ginger island is now closed and a new mediterranean is in place....since we are spread out throughout the greater bay area, something mid area, like SF or Oakland would be feasible....I think theres a Ohana grill and L&L somewhere in the east bay and the same I mentioned above in SF area....love going to both places....we have an Ohana restaurant close to work and I usually have the lau-lau/kalua pork combo lunch with mac salad and two scoops of rice for $7.50 |
