We went to Mama’s Fish House near Paia on Maui and a nice lady took this classic photo of the Nurit Rebecca and I.

This is where we are staying.  The house doesn’t have A/C or Wifi.  I miss the Wifi more than the A/C.  More posts about this very good Hawaian trip to follow.

Proud To Be An American

Posted by Simon

 

The fourth of July is coming up and it is important to find things about America we can be proud of.

 

This is one:

 

A recent study conducted by Harvard University found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year.
Another study by the American Medical Association found that Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

This means, on average

Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon.

Kind of makes you proud to be an American.

Thanks to Paul D. for this important information.

We (The Men of Stone) finally finished the installation of the fountain in the David’s garden

It looks good.  This is our fifth permanent installation and both the product and the installation technique are continuing to improve.  We now have only two more stones in stock available for experimental installation.
