We got back from Kaua’i Tuesday night. I’m finally getting around to sifting through and organizing over 10 gig of photos I took. Here’s a teaser taken while approaching Lihue. I’ll put up more soon and post the photos for the Kaua’i game. Thanks for bearing with me

I am not a big fan of flying. This is quite unfortunate since it puts a damper on my passion for travel and outdoors. If I could just drive to destinations, I definitely would be more than willing to enjoy many hours of road trip and avoid those unnerving air turbulence. Alas, I can’t drive to Hawai – oh well

On our last trip back for 2009, we, well … I, was tormented by terrible bumps. In my effort to remain calm and look for ways to relax, I know I could always count on a seat by a (clean) window

East Bay – I live in one of those houses on top of the hill

Just outside the Bay Area

I can’t believe it’s June, time flew.
My heart broke this morning. Such terrible news. So sad.
I didn’t know them and yet the news tore me up.
My heart goes out to the family and friends of the 228 passengers in AF flight 447.

We LOVE Utah and her many surprises
Despite the fun we’ve had out here, we also look forward to coming back home
I don’t have access to my goodies, so I am uploading this shot which,
with the exception of the border and text, is SOOC
Here’s to you all, I hope you all are having a great Memorial Day Weekend!
