Maui – early morning – the calm before the beach is active.
Early morning beach time is really special on Maui. Most tourists avoid early bird beach adventure. And the ones that show up are quietly enjoying a morning walk, run or combing. Seeking a ‘no foot prints in the sand’ photo can be challenging on all Hawaiian islands — so arrive early. It’s the calm beforeContinue reading “Maui – early morning – the calm before the beach is active.”

Maui’s red dirt keeps you digging for more.
Return from Maui and you’re sure to remember red dirt. It’s ever present. Add a little water and voila, you have red mud. Either way, you’ll be reminded long after you leave. For some reason, washing with soap and water ‘sorta’ works. Scrub a dub on the hands and feet and you’ll remove most ofContinue reading “Maui’s red dirt keeps you digging for more.”
Hawaiian lava roads and paths lead to one thing – the Pacific.
“Just another post” about the Pacific
The mountains of east Moloka’i – the Kamakou Preserve – can be clearly seen early in the day.
The nearly 2,774-acre Kamakou Preserve on the slopes Kamakou, the island’s highest mountain, is striking when viewed from Maui. Before you venture, plan ahead because the weather can and will affect your visit to the Preserve. When there, you can see more than 250 rare Hawaiian plants, 219 of which can be found nowhere elseContinue reading “The mountains of east Moloka’i – the Kamakou Preserve – can be clearly seen early in the day.”

Southside as in south Maui-side.
A sticky situation indeed.
Sunny sunsets with a touch of color.
Sunny sunset means sunny aloha.
The sun sets. It rises. Somewhere in between the camera flashes.
Surf’s up – out – and ripping. There’s green somewhere.
The moment of truth: green flash – or no green flash?
Near the aqueduct, a hiker’s shoe set up house. Low tax base I heard.
Warm, sunny, ahh. Just add water.

Lava paths are hot, dry and crowded with yards and yards of lava. Peeps?

Argyroxiphium sandwicense subsp. macrocephalum, aka – Haleakalā silversword
What a beautiful plant – and oh so rare. I captured this “in the wild” beneath the peak of Haleakala. Its texture is like foam and it’s soft to the touch. The plant blooms once in its lifetime – at 40 or 50 years of age … then dies.
