Hey Susan! Kelbo's daughter! The minute I saw Kelbo's I started hungering for those fantastic pineapple baked spare ribs!! I wrote you an email.. but must have goten your address wrong.. I remember! And the Queens seat, start out at low tide, and wait for it to get higher.. start getting sprayed, then washed over, and finally running for it to get back to shore before you got cut off. Remember the pier (about 20' high?) Johnny Weismuller was making one of his Trader Hall? movies at our place, and he had to dive off that oier. He ran the length and his dive was clean as he pierced the sparkling Pacific! One day, during the filming his good buddy, Duke Kahanamoku came down.. what a thrill!!!
Kelbo's was like a fairyland.. with a whole wall made of battery jars filled with seaweed scapes and lighted so beautifully. The Seaweed scapes were made by a Beaulah Marker, who was an artsit from Los Angeles. She figured out how to preserve the color of the seaweed, and made those especially for Kelbo's.. it was a beautiful, tropical paradise!! AAnd the savory smell was unbelievable!! Hope to see you and ALL sometime in August at Royal Palms!!! Aloha! Auntie Bungy
