Some of what is discussed can actually be found in the chapter "Joe."

Photos in the vid were taken during the Book Launch on Moloka'i at various hot spots on the island, such as the Moloka'i Ranch, Coffees of Hawaii, and Paddler's Restaurant. Other pix were taken at Kanemitsu Bakery (giant gumball machine) and Molokai Shores. Gratitude to Karen & David at www.molokai207.com for allowing the author to stay at their beachfront condo.
