Monday, January 6, 2025 We had a reason to stop and look even before we left our parking lot. Keith found some awesome audio guides for the island. We (partially) did one today. It said it would take 8-12 hours (depending on what you chose to do). We left by 8:45am and got home at […]

Sunday, January 5, 2025 We just keep saying, “We’re in Hawaii,” so it must be true. We have a great balcony with a table and four chairs. We trickled down this morning as we woke up and ended up out on the balcony. We have trees to look at (with golfers just beyond) and birds

Saturday, January 4, 2025 We got two companion tickets from Alaska airlines and invited Gary and Julie (the original) to join us on the island of Hawaii. Gary told us that he had unfortunate luck with TSA and to expect him to be stopped. We abandoned him and Julie to go use TSA precheck. I

Friday, January 3, 2024 We need to leave for the airport at 5am tomorrow. Alexander is okay with taking us, but I need to know he isn’t going to sleep through his alarm, so he has come to sleep here. He also worries about being late when early morning things are happening, so he is

Wednesday, January 1, 2025 Yes, I did just type 2024 and had to change it. Happy New Year! We had a spectacular day watching recordings of brass bands competing at Brass in Concert from November. Mike and Mary came and we talked and talked and talked, then settled in to watch the top 5 bands.

Tuesday, December 31, 2024 I looove New Year’s! It feels so fresh and exciting – a new start while remembering all the good from the past year. My head has been absolutely bursting with thoughts. My showers have been extra-long, because I have gotten stuck in there thinking all the thoughts. I don’t know which

Monday, December 30, 2024 Climate change? I think yes. It was another 50-degree day. We met at Kopp’s for lunch and it was so full we opted to eat outside. We sat outside and enjoyed the sunshine for two hours. Keith and I set out for home. The clouds came. Then the fog came. What?

Sunday, December 29, 2024 Michael titled today’s blog while we were playing blow-at-the-candles-on-the-table-while-sitting-in-your-chair. It was a great activity. We played it for quite a while. Then Benjamin and Sean came, we ate pizza and played cards. That was great too.

Saturday, December 28, 2024 I had a three hour nap this morning. Then I was trying to think of something we could do so Nancy and Keith wouldn’t notice I was napping while we did it. I couldn’t think of anything, so after we ate leftover party food, I napped again. Nancy remains the easiest
