Following the Nishikida party at Aunty Pat's house, we went home and I fell asleep. In the morning, I got a bunch of text messages and voicemails from Aunty Pat and Ty saying that my mom has Aunty Pat's phone.
Feeling opportunistic about the situation, I offered to take it down to Manoa with the intention to drop it off and do Pu'u Pia thereafter.
I drove down to Aunty Pat's house and drop the phone off with Byron, and then drove off to Pu'u Pia. I haven't done Pu'u Pia in 5 years. I have this urge to revisit old trails. From the cemetery, I walked all the way to the top of Pu'u Pia, it took me 30 minutes. The top of Pu'u Pia was super windy, there was a wind advisory today.
After a short break at the top, I started going down. It started to rain heavily. I had no water or backpack. I ran down as fast as I could. It took me about 20 minutes to get to my car. I was soakin' wet, but changed my shirt and went back home.
