My not so good or clear attempt at catching Venus above a sliver of a new moon, last night.

Day 24: Court, suggested by @rom
I want to say that I didn’t get to the court today because I was sick. However, while the latter is true, I actually never get to the court. 😔
🤧 I don’t know where this big has come from, but I am definitely running on a half tank at the moment.
🌩️ We are being treated to the a light show on the horizon, as lightning flashes continuously. There must be quite the storm out over the Pacific Ocean.

Day 23: Chance, suggested by @V_
You take a chance walking under a Kiawe tree that’s growing on a beach in Maui. A Kiawe’s branches have nasty thorns on them. Those branches can break off and lie buried in the sand, waiting for unsuspecting bare feet.
I appreciate all the spammers writing to me concerned if I am having difficulty pooping 💩🙄
Who does a HomePod play for when no one is listening?
Unknown to us, we left our HomePod playing in our Barn last night, no one in there. I walked in this morning and wondered what the noise was, the music was on low. I had to stop and listen, and followed that with a “Hey Siri, stop.”

The only houseplant currently in our house are these dried seed heads.
😵💫 That was an emotionally exhausting and challenging weekend. I’m hoping to carve out a bit of space in the week ahead.

Early this morning.
It’s a shame that there isn’t a March 2023 Photoblogging Challenge prompt along the lines of hanging around, or feet first.
I have a photo for them.

The remote road on Haleakala’s south flanks, looking towards Kaupō.
🤔 I’m really scratching my head with a DIY project at home. I think that I am nearing a solution, but it has taken its time.

😴 Well the visit to Lowes and HomeDepot were unproductive, but the nap in the car afterwards was welcome.

Day 13: Connection, suggested by @agilelisa
Since my first visit to the Himalayas in 1989, I have felt a connection to Tibet and its people. This photo, of a projected slide, is of me on the roof of the Potala Palace in Lhasa, Tibet, in the 1990s.
I ticked another Studio Ghibli movie off my list last night, watching Howls Moving Castle. It isn’t my favourite Studio Ghibli movie so far, but as ever, I loved the animation and the detail in the images. 🍿

Day 12: Shiny, suggested by @odd
This shiny store reminded me of a fairground ride. It is situated in Lisbon airport and sells sardines.
