Happy Aloha Friday!!! Another August is complete and we head into September. Fall will be official in a few weeks and the colors will start to change on the mainland.
This week's picture takes us back to Kauai and to it's North shore. This is a picture of the Hanalei Pier about ten years ago during its canopy restoration. The Hanalei Rotary raised $170,000 to complete the project. The Pier was originally made of wood prior to 1892 but it needed constant repairs. In 1921 it was decided a new Pier made of concrete was needed and it was completed in 1922.
Enjoy and have an Awesome Aloha Friday and a Great weekend.

Happy Aloha Friday. I just watched an old, but not very good movie filmed in Kauai. Beachhead in 1954, starred a very young Tony Curtis. Here's what the Hanalei Pier looked like back then. In the movie they called the canopy "an open shed". Looks like there used to be a railroad going down the pier.
