Looking for a new home? Curious about new models? Maybe you'd like a few decorating tips. That's what the annual Parade of Homes is for, and it begins this weekend at sites on O'ahu, Maui and the Big Island.

"Get House Smart," is presented by the Building Industry Association of Hawai'i. Hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. today, tomorrow and Oct. 8-9. Check www.paradeofhomeshawaii.com.
