Imagine a day at the beach. Now then … no peeps, no work, no noise … just the sun, beverages, a good book, the kite, sunglasses, music and the water proof camera. Splash on.

Near the beach, along side the Pacific, layered among the trees – are small flowers. It gives the whole area a fresh look.
North point on the North Shore.
Ok. The lunch spot is clear across the canyon – on the other side. Nice spot though, right?
Look around and you’ll find what you seek.
Recently I was asked, “where are the people? I thought Hawai’i was crowded with tourists.” I typically respond with, “you find what you seek. If you travel to Hawai’i to find people, you will find them.” My thought pattern continues with … if you travel to find natural surroundings, raw shoreline, beautiful blue water, lavaContinue reading “Look around and you’ll find what you seek.”
O’ahu – proof that the color of the Pacific originated in Hawai’i.
Moloka’i, our home away from home.
In the rough, Diamond Head seems just around the corner from home.
Powerful sunset – with all the drama of waves, surf and ahhh.
Oh yeah … there is water in the midst of dryness … and huge dropoff to the valley floor.

Pacific blue. Living aloha live from 808.
The road leads to the path that leads to the Pacific. It’s befitting to life as we know it, so enjoy the journey.
The road leads somewhere. Just walk along and find the ocean.

Wide open Hawaiian spaces. The Islands of Hawai’i are bigger than you can ever imagine.
Hidden Lahaina isn’t so difficult to find. Just look for it.
Just off Front Street, Lahaina comes to life. Not the kind of life found on the street … I’m talking about spots that are void of the congestion and foot traffic. I found the other side of Lahaina seeking refuge from the grunge, overdone retail, stench, street hecklers, etc. etc. Not that some of thoseContinue reading “Hidden Lahaina isn’t so difficult to find. Just look for it.”
Big sunsets – Aloha

Awa`awapuhi hiking: tough hike – great views. Worth the adventure.
Found in Koke`e State Park this trail winds through a highland forest with occasional ridge top views. It’s all downhill. Let me reiterate … all down hill means all uphill on the return trip. The day I hiked this trail, I carried a 100oz of water, a Canon 7D, tripod, Sony PCM50, etc. a pointContinue reading “Awa`awapuhi hiking: tough hike – great views. Worth the adventure.”

Hawaiian sunrise – or sunset? You be the judge.
I hated Paris until today.
A little movie played aloud while I slept. Or, I should say – as I attempted to sleep. The ambient noise drowned by the occasional baby crying in the background had me twisting endlessly in my seat. Some thousand miles back, my wife was sitting at the airport. Waiting. Meanwhile, I was afloat along theContinue reading “I hated Paris until today.”
Lovely valley of Kaua’i. This still makes me smile.
Go there in the mind. Go there in the body.
Someone asked me this week, “when are you moving to Hawai’i.” My response, “I moved there two years ago.” The quizzical look in response made me laugh with happiness. Long before you do something, like moving, you go there in the mind. Go there in the mind, you go there in the body. Factually stated,Continue reading “Go there in the mind. Go there in the body.”
