KS: Ke hana nei au i kahi 18-ft.ʻaeto no ka American Eagle Foundation ma Tennessee.Ua loaʻa i ka American Eagle Foundation ko lākou hale a hoʻopakele i kahi noho ma waho o Dollywood a loaʻa iā lākou nā ʻaeto hoʻopakele ma laila.Ke wehe nei lākou i kā lākou hale hou ma lalo o Tennessee a ke kūkulu nei lākou i kahi haukapila hou a me kahi noho a me nā kikowaena malihini.Hāpai lākou a nīnau inā hiki iaʻu ke hana i kahi ʻaeto nui no ke alo o ke kikowaena malihini.

Maikaʻi kēlā ʻaeto, ʻoiaʻiʻo.ʻO ka ʻaeto a lākou e makemake ai iaʻu e hana hou, ʻo ia ka mea i kapa ʻia ʻo Challenger, kahi hoʻopakele i kēia manawa he 29 makahiki.ʻO Challenger ka ʻaeto mua i aʻo ʻia e lele i loko o nā kahua pāʻani ke hīmeni lākou i ke mele aupuni.Ke kūkulu nei au i kēia kiʻi no ka hoʻolaʻa ʻana iā Challenger a me ka manaʻolana he hoʻomanaʻo mau loa ia.

Pono ʻo ia e ʻenehana a kūkulu ikaika ʻia.Ke hoʻomaka nei au i ka papa hana i kēia manawa a ke hoʻomākaukau nei kaʻu wahine e hoʻopili pepa i ke kino.Hana wau i nā ʻāpana kino a pau me ka pepa.Hoʻopili wau i nā ʻāpana āpau aʻu e hana ai.A laila e hana i ke kila a wili iā lākou.

Ma hope o kēlā, e hana ana au i kahi kiʻi kiʻi abstract i kapa ʻia ʻo "Pearl of the Ocean."He 25-ft.-kiʻekiʻe he kila kuhili ʻole, ʻano ʻano kiʻi-ʻewalu ke nānā aku i kau ʻia kahi pōpō i kekahi o nā spike.ʻElua mau lima e nahesa kekahi i kekahi ma luna.ʻO kekahi o lākou he 48-in.pōpō kila i pena ʻia, hana ʻia me ka pena kaʻa he chameleon.He momi ia.

Ke kūkulu ʻia nei no kahi hale nui ma Cabo, Mekiko.He home ko kēia mea ʻoihana mai BC a makemake ʻo ia i kiʻi kiʻi e hōʻike i kona home no ka mea ua kapa ʻia kona hale ʻo "The Pearl of the Ocean."

He manawa kūpono kēia e hōʻike ai ʻaʻole wau e hana wale i nā holoholona a me nā ʻano ʻāpana ʻē aʻe.
