Here's my almost Elvis story:
Many years ago when my daughter was 14, we were out with my sister riding around listening to oldies on the radio. My sister winked at me after listening to Lawdy Miss Clawdy and quietly said "remember when Elvis wrote that song for you?" With that my daughter perked up in the back seat and said "NO, he didn't, did he mom?" I just sat there when Sis said "Sure he did when they were dating", That was all it took, so we made up stories about the so called dates and she was soaking it up like a sponge. After exhausting our imaginations, we finally 'fessed up that we had been teasing with her. That girl must have cried for an hour from the disappointment of it all. Some 20 years later, Sis brought it up again when the 3 of us were hanging out and we found out that Sandy had really been affected by it. She said it wasn't funny then and it's still not funny...She walked away mumbling something about what a mean mom and aunt she had...LOL
We're fine, thanks!
How about you and yours?
All is well?

Yes, Elvis performed two concerts in Hawaii. The first was 1961 benefit for the USS Arizona Memorial and the second time was the famous Aloha from Hawaii concert in 1973. The Aloha concert is one of my favorites.
