Happy Aloha Black Friday! Where's Slip?

Four and twenty birds under the feeder, 23 goldfinches and one white-throated sparrow.

They all disappeared when this the red tailed hawk showed up. Shortly after he left, they all came back.

Happy Aloha Friday. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! While (kind of) keeping the theme of the Koolaus, here are some pictures of rainbows. The Koolaus are hidden behind the clouds in the first pic...

I realize it pales in comparison to some of you, but this is my 1500th post!

I just got back from the mall. Lol

Well maybe too much turkey yesterday. 😀🤣



Happy Aloha Friday!!! It's the day after Thanksgiving and the day after a Packer win is always nice.


This week's picture keeps us on Molokai and over to mile marker 10 on Highway450. It's about three miles from home and we always look up to check for waterfalls when we are on our way home after a rain. After a heavy rain, it's like the walls of the mountain are weeping.


Enjoy and have an Awesome Aloha Friday and a Great Weekend!!!!🤙🏻🌴🌺😎

Hiro's never disappoints. We went for Lunch/Dinner. It was pretty crowded and we ran into a couple of friends. With that said here you go. Lol

Dinner with live music? What a special treat! Glad you're okay, we were worried about you... a little. 😁
Always music at Hiro's. 🤙🏻

Holiday week threw me off. I usually have these posts ready on Tuesday or Wednesday. Lol

Happy Aloha Friday!!!! Wow, December already and Christmas will be here before you know it.

This week's picture takes us over to East Maui and the scenic 'Ohe'o Gultch. This area is known as the Seven Sacred Pools and is one of the most beautiful places on Maui. Always stunning and worth the trip.

Enjoy and have an Awesome Aloha Friday and a Great Weekend!!! 🤙🏻🌺🌴😎

Happy Aloha Friday!!!

In 2013 we took a tour of Allerton Gardens in Kauai. This picture of us was taken at the Moreton Bay Fig trees (ficus macrophylla) used in the first Jurassic World movie.

We had single digit lows several days this week but it should be above freezing this weekend.🥶

Happy Aloha Friday! Running errands today: groceries, passport photos, bank - to get the Docs notarized for our new timeshare purchase (Lawai Beach Resort) and wire the funds to escrow.

Happy Aloha Friday! Here are some pictures of/from Mokoli'i (Chinaman's Hat) taken in Feb 23. You get a great view of Kualoa Point and Ranch. Just like @slip we have a high of 82 today.

On our way to NOLA for the Christkindlmarkt at Deutsches Haus. My sister says it’s expected to be “extremely cold” - in the 50s!

Have a good weekend, y’all!
