This November California is going to vote on legalizing marijuana.  If it passes there will be a gold rush.  A Maui Gold Rush.  My idea is to act on the assumption that the proposition will pass.  Buy or lease a small beer bar in a place like Monrovia and change the name to the Bong Bar.  Keep selling beer but talk about pot a lot and get some publicity out of it.

When legalization happens start selling pot right away, in a judicious, discrete and tasteful way.  Have high prices and send a lot of the money to politicians, lawyers and government.  By showing how it can be done you may be able to influence the rules about how legalization happens.  In the meantime you can have a lot of fun.  Make some money and build a reputation as a creative person in the food and beverage business.

The downside is you have to run a beer bar in Monrovia for a few years.

Here is a picture of a utility worker diligently repairing some lines:

No problem

Except:

He is on a ladder in the middle of a busy intersection.

Good thing there isn’t an OSHA in Costa Rica.

In March we spent a week at Alaeloa in a rented house near the private cove with Rebecca and Lillian.  Alaeloa is a small beachfront community of private homes just south of Napili Beach in West Maui.

The weather was nice but not great.  Lillian chose the restaurants and the food was excellent.  Rebecca supervised the games, Carcassonne and Nurit made us go various places where the weather was better.

Like the beach at Waliea and the Surfing Goat Cremery.  I was in charge of postcards and snorkeling.  I did go diving one day with Lahiana Divers at the Cathedrals.  It was an excellent family vacation.
