Our last Mystery Shopping on the Island

We've supplied many mystery shopping reports to the PCC and this will be our last one.  We went to the Moana Surfrider.  Beautiful hotel...first one ever built on Oahu. They were favorable toward the PCC.

Great view from our balcony

Artist Jaime Mendame

Each day when I go out to get the beam counts, I pass through the lovely art gallery at the Welcome Center.  A favorite painting holds my attention each time and I really love it.  One day I was passing through and "my painting" was gone.  I was so sad and wished I had purchased it.  The next day, to my great surprise,  the beautiful art was back!  Even better, the painter was there doing more beautiful art.  I had a lovely chat with him and he sold me "my painting" for a great PCC discount.  He signed the back and named it "Home Sweet Home".

 

Graduation

Our student, AJ Caduada, from the Philippines, was the student speaker at graduation today!  She did such a wonderful job and we were proud of her.  AJ will become a full time employee in our office now that she has graduated.  We are so thankful and hope it will be a positive experience for her.
