Details

It's all in the details. The nails, the skirt, the top, and the ever present japanica leaves. This lovely hula dancer is waiting her turn to go on stage and blow them away. long beach, ca 2006

Here I Come

I am so excited to go and be apart of this thing they call E Hula Mau. These girls are going to be amazing and the boys are ready to go. I wish I was there with them right now and not going to school. auburn, wa 2006
