Photographs

Approaching the top,

and the view over Hana.

The foothills of Haleakala above the town of Hana.

If you look carefully at this photograph, on the horizon you can see a mountain rising up above the clouds. That is Mauna Kea on the island of Hawai’i. The photo is taken from across the Alenuihaha Channel on Hamoa Beach in Hana, Maui. I don’t often find it this clear.

A future harvest of papayas. 🀞🏻

Today’s status. My grandson’s fifth birthday. I’ll be staying off that due to a painful lower back.

Starting a new one, Underland, though I have yet to read the book.

Walking in the local neighborhood.

I saw this nest while out at Waihe’e Coastal Dunes and Wetlands, yesterday evening. The nest was only about knee high in a bush. With no dogs allowed in the park and few visitors, I assume that the birds must feel safe and have no or few predators?

This afternoon at Ho’okipa. The island of Molokai is in the distance.

Entertaining tonight

I went out for a bicycle ride late morning. Bike Path

The path took me past the airport, Kahului Airport

and Kanaha Beach Park, busy with Wind & Kite surfers. Kite Surfers at Kanaha

The light feels so clear today.

Mother’s Day morning on the South side.

At my grandson’s school as the children danced round the Maypole this morning.

You might have to look very close here, but this photo is taken from the Koloiki Ridge on Lana’i, with Moloka’i on the left and Maui on the right.

Evening views at the beach.

My grandson playing in the rock pools.

The setting sun.

I’m not spending much time in coffee shops these days, but I took some time this morning to sit outside at Maui Coffee Attic.

Starting my Field Notes annual subscription.

Having bought the cookbook Vegan Japan EasyΒ  a little while back (ahem), I though it about time that I try a recipe. A couple of nights back I prepared this β€œRamen for Faye Wong,” as it was titled. Two hours lates(!) I was pleased with the outcome - both looks and taste.

Make, Day 13 of February 2021 Photoblogging Challenge. Well that’s that dinosaur contained. Evening construction projects with my grandson.

Sporg, Day 12 of February 2021 Photoblogging Challenge. What a sporg will do to a tree after a bad day. Beware!

Machine, Day 11 of February 2021 Photoblogging Challenge. Rigged up to some machines at KBOO in Portland for an interview in 2011.

Energy, Day 10 of February 2021 Photoblogging Challenge. My energy levels were much stronger at this early stage of the hike through Haleakala crater at the end of last year. My legs were heavy and dragging by the end.

Muddy, Day 9 of February 2021 Photoblogging Challenge. The mudflats at low tide at Weston-super-Mare.
