Today was the Kalama Days Festival. The festival is in honor of John Kalama who sailed on a fur trading ship from Hawai'i to the Pacific Northwest 175 years ago. Kalama settled here and married a Native American woman. Kalama and his descendants were honored at this historic event.
I attended and volunteered because my hula halau was a major sponsor of the event. 3 of my students came with me since it is still summer break for them. Here they are standing in front of the world's largest totem pole. See the next shot for a better idea of how tall this thing is.
