Wow. Nomo da Mystery Road Trip. Feels really weird. But back in October of last year I promised this one, so off we go!

I looked it up on the internet and knew right then and there that I’d write about it on da bloggie. Kikue, you’re gonna love this, because I took lots of photos of the little town.

How Wild is this!

Posted on March 26, 2011 by Mokihana

I was talking to Karie at Hawaiian Beanz today. Turns out their son, who’s in college in Southern California, and is going to be a fireman like his dad, Mike, has a scanner or something where he can hear all the emergency calls for this area. So Mike and Karie were down there last week when Andrew said to them, “Guess what? There’s a fire call in Damascus” or whatever he said. And it was the call to come out to our house.

So there they all were, our good friends, in California, listening to the call about Boring Fire and Rescue coming out here.

Fortunately it was the only Damascus fire call this week.

Amazing. Just amazing.
