Sunset on the Beach

Hey all,

Going to sunset on the beach in Waikiki tonight w/ family from PA and few others. You are more than welcomed to join. Hopefully going to be sitting front of the screen near the pier. Late.

It sucked...my car got towed. The signs weren't lit enough and hidden behind trees. The red marking on the sidewalk not bright enough. My car and 4 others got towed. $158.50 to get towed to Middle Street. Another $30 for the fine. Watch yourself...just parking in the wrong place can cost you $200 hard earned cash. How can towing companies charge so much to go a few miles...its BS!!!! I'm ticked and don't understand how they can do that. I parked within 100 feet of a Bus Stop...whatever...the buses stop in the middle of the damn street anyways. Hawaii and there dumb rules again bit me in a ****.

Ok...I'm done ranting for now.

Ok...I better get it looked at. I thought I seen my car on the truck when my alarm began beeping at me. The guy was driving mighty fast. I also need to get proximity put on my car. I would have heard the beeping before they towed it. Dong Gone it!!!! Thanks Jermiah, I will get it looked at ASAP.
