HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! Paula’s holiday hours.

What a beautiful Thanksgiving day we are having here in Honolulu.  It is almost a shame Keith and I are open, but this is traditionally a great day for us to tidy up the store.  It is a quiet day here but we have had a few customers and friends stop by.  With the official start of the holiday season and with Christmas on a Sunday.  I thought this posting would be a good opportunity to post our holiday hours for 2011:
 
Thanksgiving Noon – 4pm
Christmas Eve 11-5pm
Christmas Day 11-4pm  (Sunday)
New Years Eve 11-5pm
New Years Day CLOSED
 
Take care and I hope you are out having fun!  Happy Thanksgiving again!     

 

Aloha from The Store,

What a Beautiful “Babe” – Hot Pull – Picture attached :)

Hello All!
WOW, is all I could say for a couple minutes…….That’s amazing and awesome is all I could think.  The beauty of this card really gave me chicken skin.  My store always has lots of Jordan autos pulled, but a Babe Ruth autograph is just in a class by itself.  It’s taken me a few days to post, because I really did not know what to post about it.  Still don’t.  So I’ll just send my Congrats to Jim for pulling this AWESOME card!
Thank you all for reading.  I hope you are all having a great Sunday.  Take care.
Aloha from The Store,

Sushboi visits Paula’s and left very happy! Pictures attached! :) Paula




Can you tell that I am cleaning out my email draft folder?!?!……..You know, I often have  pictures and stories that I want to post but never had time to do them.  Honestly, I usually just delete them.  Recently, I have been deleting plenty………I just never seem to have much free time anymore……..You all know that I have been an active Realtor for the past two years right?  Well if you didn’t know you do now.  I guess I will write another post explaining my Real Estate endeavors later…….
I just could not go without posting about Sushboi.  Sadly, it’s been so long that I have forgotten his name (sorry) and if I had to guess I think it is Chris.  But I know, that he is from LA, Orange county and is a Sushi Chef.  He is a friend of Sean Aoyagi who met him at the store (thanks Sean).  He was vacationing with his family in Honolulu, so he did not have lots of time to hang out.  He sure made good on the time he had with his great pulls.  Check out the Jordan auto he pulled from Upper Deck’s World of Sports!  Nice pull for a nice guy!  Sorry this post took so long but I hope you enjoy it!  Thank you very much for visiting.  Take care and I hope you make it to Honolulu again.
With Aloha from The Store,
