For those not on Threads or just not on right now… It is absolutely blowing up with servicemembers posting photos of themselves in uniform saying “Me in my Antifa uniform.”. Thousands of them. #antifa

Here my dad is his Antifa uniform, and proudly wearing his Antifa hat last year at the age of 91.

Great day yesterday joining Aloha Pu’u Kukui, TNC Maui terrestrial team and Kamehameha Schools to plant he kaukani mea kanu ‘oiwi – 1000 native plants! Above Honolua in the Pu’u Kukui preserve.

A`ohe hana nui ka alu`ia.

No task is too big when done together.

Or maybe he just wanted to make sure the team wasn’t 0-2?

Well, I was watching an hour behind because the game started at 2:30 here in Hawaii, and this gave me a chance to catch up.

I left Xitter long ago, so this is the main place where I follow Cowboys writers. I don’t engage much, but I do check in and read regularly.

What I have been hearing through the process is past the second or third round the receiver wasn’t gonna be better than what they have on roster as a #2… So if they didn’t find the value there, it’s not surprising they didn’t draft a receiver to just be another WR3 or WR4

We find our way. The distance may be vast. The path may seem uncharted. There may be winds and storms and obstacles unknown. Yet, like the Kōlea, we will find our way. Home.

where they will find a little patch of grass in a park or yard which will be their own territory through each winter for the rest of their lives, each August returning across the thousands of miles to their own particular spot.

After the chicks are hatched in summer, the adults fly back to Hawaii first, leaving the juveniles to find their own ways, using maps etched in their ancestral memories, to spots of islands in the vast ocean,

The Pacific Golden Plovers or Kōlea in Hawaii, having fattened up and put on their ‘tuxedos’ of striking plumage, this week are gathering together to one day suddenly take off for the migration across the northern Pacific to the tundra of Alaska, to their breeding and nesting grounds.

Aloha ‘Oe, Pa

My social media profiles use my middle name – to honor him.

He lived fully to be an active, independent nonagenarian, sharp-witted & good-humored to the end. I hope I am so fortunate.

I am because of him.

Rest in love Paul Irwin Crawford, Jr.
