It has been another fantastic time at
the Pacific Northwest Aloha mini-Gathering!
This past mini-gathering held on
Saturday, July 26th was even better than the first. Many of the
people who attended last year's mini-gathering attended this recent
mini-gathering held last weekend on Brenda (Molehu) and Rory's
beautiful spacious property in Tacoma, Washington. Their warm
hearted hospitality welcomed each person who attended with the
Spirit of Aloha!
We've been anticipating this event
since the day after we gathered in Tacoma for the first time last
year. Everyone bonded with one another and kept in touch through the
year by visiting the AlohaWorld Ohana Lanai
http://ohanalanai.com/welcome.htm, the "good fun", online
gathering place for locals, relocated islanders and lovers of
Hawai'i. The closer we got to the actual gathering, the more excited
everyone got. The excitement is catching! There were new people who
decided to check it out for themselves after reading so much about
it on the message board at the Ohana Lanai.
Old and new alike are sure to both
agree that the Aloha mini-gathering this year was indeed the
highlight of the summer for them. It sure helps a lot to gather
together with people with the same heart for the islands. It is like
being with family again on the island having 'good fun', joking,
laughing and just kicking back bonding with others who know only too
well what living away from the islands is like.

Yeah! There's nothing like getting
together and letting the Aloha free to bond you with others to make
a happy ohana!
Don't miss the Aloha Gathering in
Las Vegas coming up this September. Although the
gathering in Las Vegas is more "formal", the Spirit of Aloha
truly molds the event into an island experience!
