 Happily for me, the thing I wrote actually posted to my blog. So now I am confident enough to continue with it. My next goal is to learn to post some pictures. If there is anyplace pictures should be taken, it's here. Everything in Hawai'i is lush, green, full of life "to the max." I have been snapping away and will try and post.
 Today I worked in the garden at Alex's house. It's not a huge piece of property, but there are many little gardens with all sorts of flowering things (boganvilla is one). The weeds love to creep in. I have been edging which is satisfying because I see some nice results. Took my self out to lunch in Kapa au, the next little town. Had some great pizza with barbecued chicken and pineapple on top. I know true Italians think pineapple on pizza is sacrilege but it really tastes good. Visited the statue of King Kamehameha I, across from the pizza place. The king was supposedly born in this little town. Drove onward to a beautiful beach, Laupahoehoe Point Beach Park. It's very rocky, but at least I was able to sit on a rock and get my feet into the water! The water is amazingly clear and blue with pretty heavy waves. There was what looked like a family picnic, and some little boys were on the rocks fishing,  useing bread for bait.(I don't think they caught anything.)  I took Alex's Honda on this little jaunt and actually made it back in one piece.
Hope you're all having a great Sunday.
