I'm sitting in bed right now. I've had a miserable head cold for the past day. Otherwise, all is well here. I'm supposed to start my new volunteer position as a sorter of nuts (Macadamia) tomorrow. I think that's a perfect job for me. A woman named Crystalena is the nut boss. I'll let you know how it goes.
I got a new Canon camera in the mail from Amazon today. I put in the DVD and all it has shown me is how to register my camera. What I really want to know is how to operate it. When I figure that out they'll be some fantastic pictures coming your way.
Spending large chunks of the day in bed has made it possible for me to get through most of my 600 plus page book, "Cutting for Stone," by Abraham Verghese. I think he's a wonderful writer. The book's got a lot of medical stuff in it; he even gives detailed instructions as to how to do a vasectomy! Aside from this his characters and story are unforgettable.
Yesterday Mackenna and I dropped Alex at the airport in Kona and then had a fun day in the town. Later, we went to the beach called 69 which is at the 69 mile marker, and saw the sunset. I learned about Vog yesterday. The volcano is continually erupting and creating what looks like smog in the Kona area. It's referred to as vog. The sun set behind the vog but then it peeped out through a break in the bottom of the vog and created a beautiful, red ball, gradually sinking below the horizon.
