Honolulu Buddhist Temple

A  L  O  H  A !

" Shingon Shu Hawaii 

915 Sheridan Street in Honolulu, Hawaii,

 is one of the most elaborate displays 

of Japanese Buddhist temple architecture in Hawaiʻi. 

It was first built in 1917-1918 by Nakagawa Katsutaro, 

a master builder of Japanese-style temples,

 then renovated in 1929 by Hego Fuchino, 

a self-taught man who was the first person 

of Japanese ancestry to become 

a licensed architect in the Islands. "

Trade Wind Happy

A  L  O  H  A !

 When the Trade Winds blow,

 it makes everyone feel young

like this fellow enjoying 

a ride in the back 

of an open vehicle

How wonderful to work 

high on a roof with the

 Ko`olau Mountains watching

Surf is up too!

" If you can spend 

a perfectly useless afternoon 

in a perfectly useless manner, 

you have learned how to live. "

                                       Lin Yutang

Blow away Volcanic haze!

Come freshening North East Winds

bring the scent of far off cold

and open ocean-

Clear the skies

and open our hearts

to Delight!

Bright Sun

Glinting waves

Fresh visitors.

Thank YOU

for visiting today!

Hope YOU are feeling it too-

                    Warmly, cloudia
