Marcus' Great Molokai Adventure : During spring break 2008 "the boys" were fortunate to be invited to Uncle John's ranch on Molokai. Sharing a passion for flying with our host, Marcus and Wes, literally, flew into four days of adventure. Flying a Seneca Piper twin turbo most of the way from Honolulu to Molokai, Marcus was stoked and received high praise from our pilot, "the best first time pilot I've ever had... (at ANY age!)" In addition to sleeping out under the stars (as big as light bulbs under Molokai's unobstructed skies), we spent father & son time rustling cattle on horseback at Molokai Ranch, exploring the sights throughout the island (Molokai Museum, sugar mill, beachcombing 3 mile Popohaku Beach, the wharf, sleepy Kaunakakai town, and hiking to the Kalaupapa overlook, etc., etc. Best of all, John treated us to rides in the Robinson, his sleek private helicopter, and to acrobatics in a Russian Yak tandem combat trainer. North shore Molokai will never look the same if not inverted and hanging against five point restraints! Thanks Uncle John for your hospitality and friendship - you made this a most memorable getaway for the Young family.

LCC Guitars - 11/18/07 Concert : We were privileged to attend a performance of the LCC Guitars on November 18, 2007, under the directon of Peter Kun Frary. LCC is the Leeward Community College and the evening was well received by a small, but enthusiastic audience. LCC is a campus of the University of Hawaii and is located on the lovely leeward coast of the island of Oahu. The partipating muscians come from both LCC and the University of Hawaii at Manoa, in Honolulu. Peter is an accomplished solo guitaraist and, as evidenced by the night's performances, a talented instructor and arranger as well. Along with several fine solo performances, the group performed as a group, presenting a number of classic and popular pieces in unique arrangements for guitar. Mr. Frary took time to share with the audience the methods he used to orchestrate such a large number of guitars, with both high and low sections as well as lead and harmony. His arrangements were much like those of a traditional orchestra, bringing out the richness and virtuosity of classical guitar. LCC Guitars is a "must see" and we hope they will perform again soon and receive the larger audience they deserve. Review and photos by Dr. Wes Young. Posted with permission of Peter Frary and at the request of a performer and his family. Please call 808 225-6869 to remove any image or for information on high resolution files.

Wild Bill and the Winemakers... : Our multi-talented, man-about-town, Bill Biegenwald, invited Tomomi and me to assist in the bottling of his custom-brewed red wine at "Wine - The Experience" in Kaimuki on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. We encountered several of Bill's circle of friends along with another group of wine fans who wanted to take Wild Bill home... It didn't take more than one request from Bill's fellow winemakers for Dr. Wes to whip out the camera. The results are here for downloading (quality prints can be ordered online for lasting memories). We enjoyed meeting everyone and are glad everyone sipped and remained safely sober to drive home. Call photographer Wes for any questions or requests. Aloha all!

Easy Music Guitar Clinic - Nick Gertsson : Hawaii is fortunate to be the new home of a world-class guitar virtuoso hailing from Sweden. A rock guitarist, Nick Gertsson has pushed the bounds of the electric guitar universe with his ethereal and mesmerizing "new age" compositions. Easy Music Center on King Street recently hosted a free guitar clinic by Nick. The audience was treated to a symphony of voices and sounds emulating from an Epiphone electric guitar routed through a maze of effects pedals with original background tracks piped in via Nick's ipod. Gertsson makes the guitar sing - a veritable Swedish Hendrix. Nick teaches his art with Easy Music and we're grateful for Easy Music Center's ongoing series of progressively popular music clinics under the guidance of General Manager Chris Luke. Go to www.EasyMusicCenter.com for upcoming free events and get on their mailing list. Photos (c)2008 Wes Young/www.youngPHOTO.org

Easy Music Drum Clinic - von Baron : Once again, Easy Music Center in Honolulu has provided an invigorating free music clinic to Hawaii audiences. This well-attended session was presented by drum virtuoso "von Barron". von Barron provided an animated, toe-tapping and wide-ranging clinic on drum technique using both acoustic and digital drum sets. He masterfully fielded technical and style-related questions from the audience made mostly of drummers and his demos were especially enlightening with the overhead, high definition views projected from a wall-mounted flat screen TV monitor. von Barron implored musicians to "feel the music inside" and alternately danced, sang, blew a whistle, and shouted during his drum performances - and further illustrated his technique with audience participation. His special attention to Latin rhythms and excellent demo with brushes on snare made this evening's session appealing to both the professionals and novices in the audience. See more of this gifted and colorful musician at www.vonBarron.com and go to www.EasyMusicCenter.com for details on other upcoming, and outstanding, free music clinics.

While more work remains, the Lily Marlene is back to her classic outline and Uncle Ted's feeling a whole lot better... Thanks to everyone who lent a hand, especially our courageous German friend from AWM who went aloft to dizzying and dangerous heights in the bosun's chair. Afterwards, he said with a smile, "Thanks (for the photos) - my family thinks I just sand boats!" My admiration also to the crane operator.

Mr. Richard Bettini, C.E.O., and Dr. Rick Custodio, Medical Director, recently hosted our annual employee awards ceremony for 2008 honoring employees with up to 35 continuous years of service.

Now where is that ATSU application? Thanks to Dr. Bonham and his able-bodied instructors, and to all these highly-talented students who also took time to demonstrate to us allopaths a bit of osteopathic manipulation expertise. The pizza also hit the spot. Photos (c)2009 Wes Young/www.PHOTOGRAPH.us

Marcus Young (10) & kid rock band sings "The Middle" : Marcus Young, a 4th grader, plays keyboards and is lead singer for Joe Fausett's Kid Rock Band in Honolulu, Hawaii. In this digital clip Marcus sings "The Middle" by Oingo Boingo during rehearsals at King Street Studio downtown on Oahu. Marcus has also studied sax, drums, guitar, bass guitar and sang for the world-famous Honolulu Boy Choir. During one special benefit sponsored by John Travolta and spouse Kelly Preston (from Hawaii), held at the Design Center in Honolulu, Marcus sang directly to Ms. Preston. Later, he said, "Dad, Ms. Preston listened to me sing that song... and started to cry." Try that, John Travolta! A great cause - to prevent and treat drug abuse among Hawaii's youth. Bless the Travoltas and their family.

Malia In Hawaii - Belly Dancers at Kahala Mall, Hawaii : "Always carry your camera" is one lesson I emphasize when teaching friends and fellow doctors photography. I like my little Sony "point and shoot" with it's 13.6 megapixel resolution and high speed/special effects options. It's always in my "hip holster" (smaller than my cell phone carrier) when I need it. The lighting over this Kahala Mall stage wasn't ideal, and I had no warning about this wonderful exhibition of belly dancing, but the exuberance of these belly dancers still shines through. I've posted these at Malia's request. For more information, please see her website at www.MaliaInHawaii.com or call her at 808 234-1006 Hawaii Standard Time. She has a beautiful brochure listing a wide variety of learning and performance opportunities around Oahu. Quality photo prints can be ordered here online. If participants or the instructor buy prints, I can then forward the matching digital files. Prints offered for personal, non-commercial use or full use by the instructor for website or brochure duplication with proper links to www.PHOTOGRAPH.us or photo credits if in print. Contact the photographer at 808 225-6869 or wes@heal.us for permissions and to cover future events. ALL IMAGES (C)2009 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED UNDER U.S. & INTERNATIONAL COPYRIGHT LAWS
