La Playa

Duke Kahanamoku, now who is he?


In the immortal words of Jeff Spicoli: "All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz, and I'm fine."



My cousin Tony, Angela, and napping baby Sophia



I can barely look at Tony without laughing. I had to warn Melissa that he was one of the biggest goofballs I've ever met in my life. Sure enough, when we got out of the car, Melissa extended her hand to shake Tony's. He gave her a big bear hug, lifted her off the ground, and swung her around. It was the first time they met.

When Chris and I were younger, we used to think that Big Tony, Tony's dad, had been straightened out, that the books opened up for him. I don't think that lifestyle would work for Little Tony that well. He'd always ask his capo, "Who's your favorite button?" Don't worry if you don't get it.
