I posted a photo of this smiley face on the bunker before I started The Bunker series, and so I decided to post two more angles of the building on that day.

In going back through my photographs I found this distant view of the bunker. Although the artwork is not clear, it can be seen if you zoom in. I also like how this photo gives another perspective on where the bunker sits.
One last photo today of the waves. This is looking west towards the West Maui mountains.
A couple of friends grab a grandstand view of the waves coming in at lunchtime today.

There is only a partial view of the bunker here, but I didn’t want to lose an opportunity to capture any record of The Bunker that I had.

The big swell is starting to arrive this evening. My wife and I headed down to Hoβokipa to catch the first waves coming in. Apparently it will get bigger as we go into the weekend. The road and shore line was covered in a mist of water thrown up by the surf.

I’m currently listening to A Charlie Brown Christmas (Expanded Edition) by Vince Guaraldi Trio. I love this soundtrack and the associated Peanuts TV special. I’ll be watching it again this year. π

This morning’s partial rainbow οΏΌπ

Dying peony flowers.
This evening was beautiful, crystal clear with hardly a breath of wind. A couple of friends dropped by to say “hello.” At sunset the conversation turned to what to do for dinner?
So while I lit a fire, everyone else got busy in the kitchen and concocted a meal from leftovers. Our dishes full, we sat round the fire eating, chatting and catching up. And there we stayed for long after our plates were empty, under a dark sky thickly dotted with stars.
A lovely, unplanned evening.

A big βThank youβ to Andy Carolan for creating my seasonal owl avatar to take me through the holiday periodβ¦and maybe through the winter?
This is my third owl avatar. Two by Andy and one by heyheymomo.
Why owls? I lived in South Wales for just shy of two decades. While there I could hear owls calling out during the stillness of the night. Occasionally during the day I would catch a glimpse of a tawny owl sitting in a tree, or quietly in flight. On one lucky occasion I caught a tawny owl feeding its young in the hollow of an old apple tree.
Here on Maui I have seen Pueo, the short-eared owl that lives here in Hawaii.
Owls have felt like a silent presence in my life.
Lunch break at Ho’okipa Beach Park.

These images are a week old. Over the course of a day these rainbows greeted me on the day after my return to Maui. Hawaii is known for its rainbows. Last Wednesday the skies over our corner of the island excelled themselves. π
