The Bucduke goes (back) to College

Thirty five years ago, the Bucduke took his 4.0 GPA from UC Davis and gracefully left college never to return again, until now. That's right, I just listened to the Bucduke negotiate payment for his college tuition - that means he's committed. This afternoon we're headed to Walmart to do some back to school shopping to really seal the deal.

Our local university, Kaua'i Community College, is now offering a solution to the world's food crisis in the form of a Sustainable Gardening and Farming course. This 15 week course meets once a week on Thursdays, a perfect way for the Bucduke to ease back into the institutionalized learning process. The Bucduke, aka Mr. Green Jeans, will be learning from some of the islands experts, and implementing these sustainable principles on this little slice of heaven we call 'The Range.'

Andrew & Lauren's Visit

The great Kurtastrophe played matchmaker, hooking us up with some friends from the mainland on their cross country (in its truest form) journey. They ventured deep into Kalalau on their visit to the Garden Island and it's not clear whether they preferred it there, or here:

“Still, despite all of the things we have done this summer, the most unexpectedly wonderful part was staying with you. The beauty of your home and property were only exceeded by your warmth and generosity. Lauren and I felt truly at home there and are so thankful for all of your hospitality. Good luck with the work on the house and we look forward to meeting up with you all again sometime in the future.

Mahalo,”

-Andrew and Lauren

We look forward to your next visit, nice getting to know you guys.
