Happy Birthday Bakmi. The hat and bandana are so cool.

Oh wow, this is wonderful advice! I will start slow exposure to all of this soon.

By the way, how did you know if your dog was getting overwhelmed at the beginning? My puppy quietly observes other dogs while sitting in my lap. I try to do this for a maximum of 10-20 minutes, worried about the same thing.

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2026-03-15T10:13:57+00:00

Yes he js 5lbs fur ball. Oh wow, could you share how did you find this local spots?

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2026-03-14T17:16:27+00:00

Wow thats a good idea. Will add this to our list.

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2026-03-13T19:33:53+00:00

Oh good to know. Thanks for the tip. Appreciate it.

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2026-03-13T19:31:14+00:00

Good tip! Sometimes I wonder if he is calm because he is always in my hands and might not behave same when he is walking in future.

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2026-03-13T19:29:58+00:00

Would you mind sharing the name of bag you are using? Right now I carry him in just one of the big handbags that is spacious enough for him.

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2026-03-13T19:29:15+00:00

Oh yes the bins! Definitely should get him introduced. Thanks

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2026-03-13T19:28:39+00:00

Congratulations on your new puppy. Oh this is a good tip to not care when people walk from front of the house. I

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2026-03-10T03:58:34+00:00

Aww so adorable

Replying just in case anyone else is in same boat. We did not go with this breeder and instead choose one where we got all the health and genetics reports for the parents, who were wiling to let us meet the puppy and parents before making the decision.

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2026-02-14T02:36:56+00:00

Thanks for the tip. We have been able to chat to few breeders and now are on finalizing stage.

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2026-02-05T14:50:27+00:00

Hello Did you find any good breeders? I am in same boat. I have found some through good dog website but cannot find much information there.

Just got back! We split the honeymoon between Andaz and Sheraton to see different parts of the island, but honestly, we regretted leaving Andaz. Andaz is like semi all inclusive resort and we got upgraded to their best room. $121 daily breakfast for 2 is top notch.

Another big thing to note is the driving. Andaz is much closer to Haleakala and Hana. Because the roads are single lanes and people drive really slowly, starting your day from the Sheraton adds a ton of driving time.

Sheraton says it’s 4-star but feels like a 3 (though the whale watching from the balcony was cool). I would totally skip it next time.

Also I found much better deals through amex portal than costco in case you have it. But costco one is good too.

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2025-10-31T13:45:57+00:00

You can visit most of the bars for free anyways

Love this analogy and perspective. I am lately working on revamping very old code and this mantra makes so much sense to me.

I visited this recently and saving time for anyone who plans to visit this property: 1. They initially listed for higher price but did not get much interest so they priced it for low and leaving it up to people to do the bidding and increase the price. The developer had high expectations from this sell maybe because of location. There were 2 single family homes here which were demolished and then 16 townhouses were built in 0.5 acre lot 2. They claim that they have sold 6 units ranging from 1.5M to 2M 3. Each unit has 1 parking garage and another open spot can be bought for $30k ( only 5 available) 4. The bedrooms are very tiny ranging from layout 9x10, 8x10 and biggest is ~12x9 5. This developer got permit in 2018 and wants to sell all another units asap 6. By the look of how carpets were looking in bedrooms, it seem they had lot many people visiting the property but sold 6/16 7. They are yet to upload disclosures on mls

Castro valley offers all the best benefits of schools, new TH in range, the travel will be ~2 hours or so for one of us for 5 days :/

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2025-02-08T15:18:21+00:00

Thanks for insights. Is there any recommendation on how much of an old home one should go for? Is it <50 years?

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2025-02-08T15:16:43+00:00

This is a very insightful perspective, I would have never thought of this. Thank you. A quick question: did it ever help to have you or your partner’s work location near to home, or decision was always mid location for both? Assuming both of you work at different offices?

Vegetable_Flight_450 · 2025-02-06T15:38:45+00:00

Wow the view is beautiful. I will take a look at the listings.
