Happy Aloha Friday

Happy Aloha Friday and Happy New Year!

Still having some rain on the windward side (as expected); however, it's less than previous weeks. It's currently 72 and overcast. Had a little rain already this morning.

2 completely unrelated comments and pics. We went to the North Shore last week on Christmas day and watched surfers. Yesterday, we picked some avocados from our tree (63 of them!). We still have plenty left on the tree.

We're at our house in Reno for a couple of weeks. We are enjoying our view of the snowy Sierra's over our coffee this morning:

Happy 2026 Aloha Friday!

Before we book a reservation at Duke's in Kauai, we like to check the schedule for the cruise ship terminal. It's fun watching the big ships try to wiggle their way out of the Nawiliwili Harbor

Happy Aloha Friday!!! January can be a long cold month and so far it's been wet and a little cooler.

This week's picture keeps us on Molokai and takes us up to Kalea at our own Ironwoods Golf course. This is the view from the eighth green looking down to the tee box for the eighth hole. It's a beautiful view from up there.

Enjoy and have an Awesome Aloha Friday and a Great Weekend!!!🤙🏻🌴😎🌺
 
Happy Aloha Friday! Headed to our exchange in FL today! Looking forward to being warm—and chill! :)

Happy Aloha Friday from Salem Oregon. It is wet and in the mid 40's. The Cascades have gotten 4 feet of snow over the last couple days. Less than 2 weeks to San Jose del Cabo.
 
Happy Aloha Friday!

The moonlight makes a perfect profile of the palms next to the ponds and pool at the Point at Poipu. :cool:

Happy Aloha Friday! We are still at our home in Reno for several more days. It was 12º when we got up this morning. We've gotten quite a bit more snow since I lasted posted this view on Jan. 2nd. Our home in Reno is located on the top of a hill, on the west side of Reno, and we are looking at the east side of the Sierras.

Happy Aloha Friday from Maui Bay Villas. Sunshine and a nice breeze this morning. Should be mid 80s today. Heading to the Big Island tomorrow.
 
Happy Aloha Friday with a lot of fresh powder which we will not ski yet because we are returning home.

Our NY start was not ideal due to a Flu bug shared by all family members since 12/26. However , our next ski trip in two weeks will be more rewarding and we will get our Annual Ski pass monies worth of excellent skiing. Skol!

Happy Aloha Friday from The First Coast! I don’t know where you guys are going but it’s been perfect in northeast Florida this week. Highs have been in the mid to upper 70s with lots of sun. Perfect winter weather! Probably going to the beach tomorrow.

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Happy Aloha Friday!!! We had a big storm pass all the islands this week that has brought cold and rain but we still got our golfing in. Lol

This weeks picture takes us over to Kauai where you see the unmistakable Kong in the background. That's always one of my favorite sites when we're on Kauai.

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

I received a statement from my Medicare Part D plan. The statement itself took one page The other 5 pages were blah, blah, blah stuff which I usually don't read. However, this time a page caught my attention.

Happy Aloha Friday all, although I’ll admit my reaction seems to be “Is it Friday again already?!” these days. At least we’re visiting the granddaughter this weekend, hooray!

Happy Aloha Friday fron The First Coast! In the ‘What a difference a week makes’ department, last weekend it was 80 degrees and I enjoyed a very warm and sunny day at the beach. This morning, it was 30. I’m not going to the beach today.
 
Happy Aloha Friday! We are back in Northern, CA, where it is cool and foggy, but well above freezing.
