Jan 21, 2012 Installation Banquet at Tree Top Restaurant, Manoa

A wonderful evening of fun and laughter with good friends of the club.  Thank you George and Judy for all your hard work to get this evening together.  Thank you Calvin and Mel, and all who helped.  Thank you Mr. Lee for tasty food.  It was all good and we all stuffed ourselves... prime rib, nasu, spare rib were all good, but couldn't pass almond jello, and just when we thought we were done, freshly fried moch balls... mmmmmm, there was no doubt in our mind we could not miss it!    




Welcome!


Ruffle tickets... the more you buy, the more you win...

Ichiro & Scott busy writing names on the tickets.

Lecture by da loco boy, Randy Tajima
"Orchid Tips, Techniques, & Other BS"

Trivia question: If you put sugar and peanut butter in front of an ant, and if it goes to sugar, it's a "sugar ant".  What is it if it goes to peanut butter? (answer after next picture)

Randy, thank you for very interesting talk.

The answer to the trivia: It's "protein ant".
(If you answered "peanut butter ant", you are as bad as me.)

Intrim break time - thank you for all who brought yummies.  Also, great job, refreshment committee!!
These are definitely one of the things we look forward to at the meeting.  :)


During break time - talking, eating, socializing...



Another meeting of great fun.
