Annika Baumgarten never thought she would be pulling weeds in Hawaii. The 14-year-old from The Dalles was happy to do it, however. She recently returned from the United Church of Christ National Youth Event on the island of O’ahu where she spent her time helping the environment, learning Hawaiian culture and bolstering her faith.

It’s a big jump from Mexico to Hawaii, but Jose and Maria Ruis, the owners of Lilo’s Hawaiian BBQ in The Dalles, appear to have made it successfully. The husband and wife team has opened a second location of their popular restaurant, and this one is in the heart of the downtown business district at 400 E. Second Street in The Dalles. The original Lilo’s was at 2910 Cascade Ave. in Hood River.
