Aloha Pomaika'i, Mahalo for asking me to be your friend. get reason for everything hah, you post picture we have connection. Kaapana is ohana on my tutukane side, Haa. My husband stepfather Moniz, is family of Namahoe. His biological father is Mahi. If you have ohana from Kau side going come out we related......I think because no more ka'a that time plenty intermarriage. Your pictures are awesome, the one of the kulolo is making my opu yearn for go home. May ke akua bless you and your ohana. 'Anake Melissa

Welcome to our circle of friends
Tom Pires is in his 60's and living on Oahu but travels to Maui alot. Probably your ohana.
So your grandma from Ka'u by Hilea side? Coming from Hilo side to Naalehu where is Paukanu? Pass Punaluu and before the old Hutchinson sugar mill ?
Anyway, I'm glad you have family in Ka'u and I hope it stays the same country so our younger generations can experience the old Hawaiian lifestyle.
Take care

Any relation to Tom Pires and insurance agent on Maui and Oahu?
