I won't promise to post items to my journal often, but today was special and I just wanted to share a few pictures of an important project in the works here on O'ahu with the Republican Club. We celebrated Statehood Day, August 15, with a work party at a local children's park behind the intermediate school. This blighted area has been sadly neglected for years but we have started the wheels turning to make much needed improvements including having the site bull dozed to cover the broken glass and rubble. The residents nearby came out to thank us and even pitched in and helped. The children who helped worked very hard for 4 hours in the hot sun. They want a cleaner, safer place to walk and play. We were told that the US Navy will dredge the polluted stream in the future. Please click on the link to view a few pictures I placed on Picasa.
