Happy Aloha Friday!

Beautiful photo of the moonlight off the coast. What a clear reflection upon the water. Very nice!
Glass Beach sure is different from many others. I was not familiar so I looked up online and it does have quite an interesting history. Thank you for your excellent posts.

This week I’ll be sharing some photos from Wednesday, July 13, 2022. This was our Beach Buddies day with the Maui Humane Society https://www.mauihumanesociety.org/beach-buddies/
We were lucky to spend about four hours with Nala, a seven-year-old mix breed shelter dog. Ironically, as a canine residing on Maui she is apparently not a huge fan of venturing into the water. Though she mostly wanted to stay dry, she did much enjoy the company and I believe was happy to just be outside.

Here is Nala posing in the backseat ready for the ride to Kihei.

Awesome pictures again. They have the same program for the dogs on Kauai and we often see them around the island during our stays.

My wife was sitting in her recliner and said I should get a picture so I went out to the lanai and snapped a couple pictures quick. They did come out nice.

Thanks Denise. I was thinking of doing the same.

It is a little odd in getting there and sometimes the road is washed away. The last couple times we were there the road was in good shape though.

Ok, where is the glass beach located? Is it save to bring some of these items back to the mainland?

We have collected Sea Glass from all around the Pacific.

Thanks you DeniseM.

Thanks you DeniseM.

Like most places in Hawaii, there are no signs or anything. You have to make the effort, find parking and hopefully you'll be in the right spot.

So many times, I would turn down an odd looking torn up road and say "This can't be it" but keep going and sure enough find what I am looking for. It was that way for the first time I found Glass Beach years and years ago.

If you follow the sign "Aloha, Please do not steal the beach glass" then you will not take them.
Each time I go there, there is less and less beach glass because people take them.
It's a shame that people ignore signs or they can't read or they just don't care for others that will come to the beach in the future and will see nothing.

This is a big pet peeve for my wife also.

Happy Aloha Friday everyone. Today is Statehood day here in Hawaii. It's been an official Holiday here since 1969.

It looks to be a great weekend. Today we are going to take a drive to the Kalaupapa Lookout and take walk around. But today's picture takes us back to Kauai and one of the many lookouts over Waimea Canyon. A must stop when you are on Kauai.

Enjoy and have an awesome weekend and Aloha Friday!!!

Happy Aloha Friday!!! to you @slip and all of TUG.
Waimea Canyon does look incredible in photos and exploring the area within the next few years is on “the list”.

This group of photos takes us back to Thursday, July 14, 2022 at the Westin Maui Kaanapali. It was our first luau and we did not know what to expect. The food was great and the show was amazing. Especially the man who went up the palm tree with the fire stick. Wow!

It's Aloha Friday and the last one in August. Now we move on to fall and the football season is about to start. Fall certianly is coming and temps here are getting down to 74 degrees at night. Soon we will have some whales coming fown from Alaska.

This week's picture takes us back to Oahu and the famous Rainbow Tower at Hilton Hawaiian Village. Many of you should be familiar with this view. This was part of our view over Christmas a couple of yests ago. Enjoy and have a great weekend.

Happy Aloha Friday everyone!!

Thanks Jeff. Thought I’d throw in this pic of the East coast of Oahu taken on a recent flight to the mainland, about as close to Molokai as you can get in Oahu.

Wishing everyone a very Happy Aloha Friday.

Wishing the best of Aloha Fridays to all!

The following photos go back to our final full day on Maui last month. These photos taken Friday, July 15, 2022. What a phenomenal trip!

Charley Young Beach Park - Kihei

Dinner from the Aloha Thai Fusion food truck parked each night along the street adjacent to the WorldMark Kihei. Fresh fish sliders were delicious!

Last sunset on Maui until next time!

Many thanks to all the TUG members who share your knowledge and contribute to these fora.

It's Aloha Friday. The first one in September and a nice long weekend. It's supposed to be a little warmer here so we plan to hit a beach and maybe do some fishing.

This week's picture takes us back to Oahu and taking in a sunset from our old apartment in Waikiki. Enjoy and have an awesome Aloha Friday everyone!

I never really thought about going to Hawaii to “cool off,” but we’re expecting about 112 degrees in the Los Angeles area today and tomorrow. It was 110 yesterday at my house north of the city. We only got DOWN to 85 the night before last! Makes Oahu seem chilly.

They are saying 90 for the weekend but the trades are supposed to be strong. Stay cool.
