Well here he is in Hawaii at last..After his long trip from NY which was quite traumatic, as he seems to have lost his way a little, he was quite relieved to finally be here. After a restful nights sleep in his match box bed he awoke to find all my desktop friends there to greet him...They were quite taken with this "Hapa Haole" (half white, and half blue) guy. They all became instant friends as is the Hawaiian way. He was especially enamored by the raven haired beauty "Punani", and I've had to keep my eye on these two constantly. Since it has been raining quite a bit I decided to get a group picture for every one to see.

From left to right in the back row: Yokozuna, my Japanese friend, Garfield, Mr. Piggy, and Beak.

Front row: Punani, and of course Grover...I think his right arm was trying to check out what's under the grass skirt, the little flirt!

Here is a close up of Punani and Grover...He really fell head over heals for this little wahine, and thoughts of Barbi from NY were soon fading...After all what man doesn't love Punani? Men can be such rogues..heh heh..

Since it was raining quite a bit each day I thought I would take him into work with me to meet a special friend. My friend lives in a special place and not everyone has the priviledge to meet her...only by special request by me was he able to see her...I couldn't really tell if he like her tho_...

After work Grover kept bugging me to use my electric guitar...I thought why not? He's quite the guitar whiz and taught me a few Van Halen licks. We jammed a while till the sun came out after many days of rain...He was quite estatic that it finally stopped raining and that he might have a chance to finally get to go surfing...So he kept bugging me to hit the surf...I told him it could get quite dangerous, but he insisted he wanted to rip and slash...and show everyone what a beach boy he was..So we loaded up the car with our boards and headed out...

We finally made it down to the beach and he was quite shaken at the rocky shore and large waves. After careful consideration he decided he would pose for this shot and watch me instead. I told him he should go and see Uncle Errol who would take him to safer places, where he might not have to risk his life...he agreed...so for now I bid him a fond Aloha, and will pack his little suit case bound for Sharkys house...Aloha little guy, I will miss you, come back any time! But leave Punani alone!!

Mahalo Dave! I can see the little blue guy is very Hau`oli with you in paradise. Aren't you glad you got this little Malihini? It seems like you both have had a ton of fun. I love the stories and photos. The quality fo the shots is exceptional and so creative. I love hearing about your adventures. I look forward to some more when he goes to the luau and gets to spend some time with his new hoaloha Errol. I know he'll miss his pretty new wahine lpo Punani. :wub: BTW...where does your special friend live? heheheh....:laugh:

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone?

Great pics of the latest Grover adventures - thx Dave :)

We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'

Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.

Grover is easier to transport with his tiny stature, but yet, it makes getting the perfect photo a challenge. You came through brilliantly. =] ______________________________ Memorable Quotes from The Adventures of Super Grover (1987) (TV) Grover: Remember this, kids, it is very important. Even if your mommy makes you a super hero costume, do not attempt to do any of these things, especially flying. Because you cannot do it. You do not have super powers. Because their is only one Super Grover. And that is me. --- Narrator: He zooms through the sky smarter than a speeding bullet, furrier than a power locomotive, able to leap tall sandwiches in a single bound. Kid: Look, up in the sky. It's an egg plant! Kid #2: It's a meatball! Grover: It is I! Super Grover!

OK Dave, he finally arrived at my house.  He got a speeding ticket on his way and may face court.  Imagine the judge sentencing him to jail???  Check it out...  Aloha... Errol "Grovers adventures in Hawaii"
