Aloha,
Howzit! I'm "Da Webmastah" a.k.a. "Puna" or "Punaboy" and I own and operate this website named; AlohaValley.com. My name is Francis Paul Ganon, originally from the east side of the Big Island of Hawaii. From the Puna and Hilo District to be exact. I consider myself to be the down-to-earth and simple type with a colorful sense of humor. I'm a typical "Local Boy" most likely sporting the ever so popular t-shirt, shorts and rubbah slippahs.
I was raised learning the values of plantation and county living residing in Hawaiian Paradise Park (HPP - 30th & Kaloli Ave, AU-RITE!) and the nearby town of Kea'au (Ola'a) a few miles south of Hilo. Once a Warrior, always a Warrior, I graduated from Waiakea High School (Hilo) and served 8 years in the United States Air Force. I've been living on the 9th Island of Las Vegas since the year 2001.
Besides my duties for AlohaValley.com I also help out as a weekend radio DJ on Las Vegas' first and only Hawaiian & Island radio show on the FM dial. Tune in every Saturday from 10am - 1pm, The Little Grass Shack 91.5 KUNV FM, Your Source of Aloha.
Oh yeah, one more thing... the name Ganon (GA - as in Aloha, NON - as in Pono) is of Filipino/Ilocano decent, not to be confused with the American name Gannon or the fictional character from The Legend of Zelda video game. Yeah, just had to throw that in. So get it right! K-den.
