Our little Honda Accord

That got killed in a car accident by the airport. But it did save Debbie and that's what counts...

Sunsets

From our lanai...

This is Evan driving his new car, a one cylinder tow truck.

Debbie teaching Evan to spell

Here is a video clip of Debbie showing Evan how to spell his name.

A shot of Waimea from the Saddle Road.











Also, a shot looking towards Waimea after a rainstorm and we get the rainbow, altho a bit shortened.














And today, we have a shot looking down towards Kona with lots of rain and clear up here in Waikoloa and at the beaches up here.

Back in 2004

I went to Volcanoes National Park with a woman from NYC who was doing portraits of people. She wanted to go and offer a blessing to Pele, so off we went.
Of course, we were not walking faster than 15 mph over the lava.

Clouds and fire

Driving home one day, I saw an arrowhead in the clouds pointing up to my home.




There was another nite when we had fires just east of us in the hills. Another fire set by people who don't want to see too much new building in our area.

Maui in the clouds

One day, while driving down the highway to Kona, I got this shot of Maui off in the distance, the deep blue waters and the shallower aqua waters near the shore. Plus, you get to see the lava rock that is so prevalent on the Big Island.

Just some more shots around the Big Island. Waves up at the north end of the island.





Plus, clouds at sunset.













One Sunday, we woke to another fire down along the coastline. All told, there were 5 fires set that morning.

Zoe

Another feral cat, we named Zoe, has been coming around to be fed each nite. We think she is from the same litter as Keoki since they do not really fight with each other. Zoe must be a girl since she is so much smaller than Keoki. She is still pretty wild since she hisses at me when I put food into the dish and will try to scratch me before coming to the food.

Clouds

Just a sample of some of the beautiful sunsets we get from our lanai here in Waikoloa.

These are shots of Hualalai, another dormant volcano south of where we live. We have even gotten to see snow on Mauna Kea after a storm this year. It only lasted for about a day and then melted away.
