Labour Day

I know that Labour is traditionally not spelled with the u... in America, but it is in other parts of the world so that leaves it open for me to opt in or out. This is my(Ian) first post. Katie has done all the previous posts and I thought I would put in a post. My basic goal is to show off some of the pictures that I take. I am very amateur, but I enjoy playing with our camera. So here goes.
Today was Labour day. I am not exactly sure what Labour day is about but the point is that we don't have school and even if I did, I probably wouldn't pay attention when they were teaching about Labour day. But trial balances, that is something to get excited about.
The day started with a little surfing at a nearby spot to Laie. I went with Jesse Price and Chris Pierce. We had a grand ol' time. I have no pictures of that, other than it was really crowded and my board got a deep ding, it was a fun session.
Later in the day, I journeyed to the Rondo's(I could have misspelled that) residence. Here is what I found there.
A party was setup and ready to go! Complete with...
Food! And the occasional mullet/mustache combo. You inspire us all.






Shown here to the left is our wonderful host and grill master, George Foreman. Played by Cameron Rondo.
Cameron and his wife were kind enough to put on this party, all who attended would have to say it was a great success.









Sure enough, the people came.
and came...
and came...
till the place was full of people who knew how to sit down! And how to Party!
For some, if not all, the highlight of the evening was crochet! Oh, I mean croquet!
Let me tell ya, the competition was tough!
We were all so mesmerized, though I still don't know who won.
She was not actually playing, but this was a fun photo.
The house was beautiful and right on the beach in Laie. It would be hard to imagine a better Labour Day. Maybe by next year I will know why we have school off.
Special thanks to the Rondo family. If I spelled names incorrectly, I apologize. Feel free to contact me if you feel so. Otherwise, I hoped you enjoyed the show. I feel like I can just keep typing because I don't know much about blogs, but I imagine that most people will look at them for the pictures, of which I have supplied bountifully. If you get to this far in the blog and are still reading; you should probably stop. Obviously you are free to do whatever you like but there will be nothing of interest after this point. I really mean it. Mario Kart party! Man I love the Wii. Maybe I should blog about that. Blogging is kind of fun. I think I could see myself doing this more often. I should probably begin a good sign off line that I can use each blog. Like, Ceiling fans rock! Or, I drive a Neon! Maybe, Thanks for wasting your time on me!
