Menehunes Are Cool

Rikki and Stan

Rikki with a "Real" Menehune

According to Legend the Menehune Ponds
were Built in One Night.

This week when I was in Hawaii I found my long lost heritage. In Hawaiian mythology a Menehune is a small dwarf who live in the deep forests and hidden valleys of the Hawaiian Islands. After reading the definition I thought to myself hey...that's me I am a Menehune! Maybe I am one of those rebel Menehunes that was kicked out of the tribe because according to legend they were night people who liked to build things like fish ponds. Well everyone who knows me knows I like to sleep and I can't build anything, so I must have been kicked out.
