The Obon season is upon us. This is the Japanese Buddhist custom to honor your deceased ancestors, family members. You may recognize it as a time to dance in a circle and eat good food. The dances have evolved ("Electric Slide" bon dance may be peculiar to the Honokaa Hongwanji - not sure if it has spread to other communities), I guess its spectacular proof that Hawaii Changes Everything.
So taking my mother tonight to eat and dance. See you there.
