New shoes! The new school year ushers in new hopes, new dreams, and a new pair of Chucks, Vans, or Nikes. I took this photo outside of Kumu’s hula class. I asked a few of the students to line them up for me. They thought that it was kinda awkward, but funny.

I had to get a new pair this year as well. I actually tore my old pair on “Snake Hill” this past Monday. Picked up a pair of waterproof Timberland oxfords. Now I’m ready for the Keku Stairs, the football field, and yes…. Snake Hill.
