Cloud Surfing at Kahala

This guy was kite surfing at Kahala on a very windy day. The wind would carry him several feet in the air. After getting home and looking at the photograph, it looks like the ropes are connected to the clouds.

In Memory of

There once lived a man who married his college sweetheart. They had three children and life was good. Tragedy happened when the kids were 11, 10, and 5. His wife, and mother of his kids, passed away. His one and only, although deceased, stayed his one and only. This was a love story that ended too soon. He was and is my father, Walter Ray Jetton - 1930-2010.

Dad was born in Fort Worth, Texas, the son of the King of BBQ, Walter Jetton. After his father passed away in 1968, Dad purchased a radio station in the US Virgin Islands. What better place for someone who loved SCUBA and photography to live. I remember moving into this house my mom called her dream house. She never got to spend one night in that house. The day we were moving in was the day she was rushed to the hospital where she went comatose. Her absence in that house made the three story castle like house seem huge and somewhat spooky. It was only a short time after moving in that she went to be with the Lord. We could not stay in a home that never was, so we moved to Cowpet Bay.

Some random information:

Dad worked for a while at KFJZ in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. This is where he got the idea of owning a radio station.

He met mom when he was going to college in Colorado. Her father and my father were photographers at the time.

He and George Marler taught SCUBA at the Fort Worth YMCA prior to them both moving to the Virgin Islands. George owned the dive shops in the British Virgin Islands where we went on a lot of dives. George's photography has been in prestigous places such as National Geographic. He also worked on several movies such as the Bond movies that were filmed there. He has a great book out called "The Royal Mail Steamer Rhone: A Diving Guide and Brief History of the British Virgin Islands"

After moving back to Texas, Dad become a computer network engineer for the DFW Medical Center where he worked until retirement. 

Thrill the World 2010, Honolulu, Hawaii: The Video

Thrill the World 2010, Honolulu, Hawaii

The zombies' of Jackson gathered by the lagoon on Magic Island on October 23, 2010. This location is at the Ala Moana Beach Park in Honolulu, Hawaii. On Que, groups around the world, became zombies for a unified reason. some came out of the lagoon and other came out of the ground to dance to the tune of Thriller by Michael Jackson. As soon as the song was over, they went back to their graves until next year. Enjoy the photographs.

My Friend on a Honeymoon.

My friends on their honeymoon in Hawaii from Seoul, Korea.

This photograph was taken up in the mountains overlooking Honolulu. This is the place has the best view of all. The only better view would be from a helicopter.

Mr. Lee, in the above photograph works for BBQ Genesis in Seoul. I still have a signed baseball from one of the Korean baseball stars that one of their companies provided when ordering chicken. I am hungry just thinking about their chicken! Too bad I am thousands of miles away right now. I wonder if they deliver that far away!





Here is the view from the lookout. On the far left is Manoa Valley where the University of Hawaii is located. In the distance is Diamond Head Crater. Just to the right of Diamond Head is Waikiki and then in the middle is downtown Honolulu. On the far right is Honolulu International Airport (HNL). In front of the airport is Punchbowl Crater where the VA cemetery is located. If you click on the images for the full size image, you will see the rain and a lot more detail.
