Kapolei Chapter Strikes Again

I got most things done for the day and got ready to go to Kapolei Chapter Social. I missed the last one and I didn't want to miss this one. I planned on getting there early enough to get a picture of the place.

I left at 5 pm and the bus would have got me to Kapolei Transit Center at 6:30 at which time I would get the 411 that would leave me right in front of Makakilo Community Center. But "the best laid plans of mice and men." The Rail Party screwing up the schedules and the bus was late and I missed the 411 and had to wait for the next. Did not get there until 7:30 and the place was jumping. I tried to take a picture from the outside but was too dark already.

Went inside and said as many hellos as I could, I had so much I wanted to do. Beginners dancing and also some of the best line dancers on this island. And it is quite understandable, if they wanted to have fun and not participate in picture taking or contributing quotes. As these blogs evolve into Social Media, it will all come with time.

The Ring of Prayer led by Roger, then the line formed to take advantage of some of the best Pot Luck on this island. Fortunately, I got a dance with Emmie, hadn't seen her in a while. And I tried to get Ben to give me a quote.

Then lucky I got a dance with Beryl, but she did not want to quote. We must let those that want, it should come out soon. Then I got lucky again and had a dance with Lorna, like most of the ladies, very good at following. Seems like we have been practicing for hours. Had a nice talk with Arnold and Millie Chun, and I have to try to make it for their social on September 10th. Could be a Goodee.

My cameras not coming out so good. I will find a way. Willy and Roy said they would Email me some photos, let us see. Hopefully I can get the good kine and I will make a second post. We will have a lot to share with our fellow dancers.

I left before nine when I saw some people leaving and I got a ride with Norman and Yvonne Oshiro to the the Bus Stop in Kapolei. They are very knowledgeable and maybe I can get a quote next time. A short walk to Safeway, bought some goodies and then another short walk over to bus stop on Makakilo Drive and waited for the C bus.Got home before ten. Nice.

Made myself a Rum and Coke, clicked some nice music on my computer and sat down for the preliminaries on this blog. Will have to make Blog Two for this shindig, when I get the photos  from Roy and Willy.
