Na Kahumoku

    What, you may ask, is Na Kahamoku?   If I told you that it was a new offering at the Big Island Grill,

 would you believe me?  Possibly a mound of rice, a layer of raw ahi smothered in Manhattan clam chowder.  And topped with two Rocky Mountain Oysters.  And they only serve it on Wednesday as Tuesday is butchering day at the Parker Ranch.   You very well might, as loco moko is only slightly less complex and disgusting.   BIG will serve you a steaming portion of that surfer classic for about ten clams.

     But no!  Na Kahumoko translates to "Keepers of the Island."  It is a service organization at Kealakehe Middle School.   The charming trio at right is in the vanguard of NK.  If you are lucky, like Sandra and I were, they will drop in while you are down at K Bay and teach you about a fish or the coral. Or maybe they will teach you how to fix your home computer.

    All kidding aside, I think it is super that these kids are promoting conservation as opposed to the assassination of the animals we hold so dear.   Na Kahumoko is most definitely Pono!
