Sunday


Up early to sit. The moon is so different! White not gold and higher in the sky. Somewhere daylight savings time begins, but not here.

Sitting quietly

Starry swath of stars, gold moon

Coddled, luminous.


Golden moon coin sets

Anchoring bones and soft breath.

Palms like prayers  ascend




We ready ourselves for UCC Church  of the Pacific.


The pianist a 12 yr old boy, the ukelele player 13.

It was retirement day for the pastor. I wanted Lent. The reading from Romans spoke to Faith. We introduced ourselves and were chosen to receive two tuberose leis!



After worship we drove to Walmart for potty bags for Pilgrim and then to the Lihue Airport to pick up Ed and Marilyn. They were happily surprised! We honored them with leis We transported  to Alamo and they got the last Jeep in stock;)



We drove to Kapaa for lunch at the Olympic Cafe.

Dan was hungry for a burger and I savored the Kauai wrap!

Feeling flat today. Giving up a beach day for welcoming.

Cramps after lunch so I laid low, then painted for a while.



We are having Ed and Marilyn over for dinner and i make a salad and prep asparagus. Webers bought fish at Costco for us to grill.

Dinner is fantastic! And the JAM wine juicy juicy;)

I drink a bit too much because i am hungry for fun.

Pilgrim loves having company too!

During dessert of mac nut cream pie and haupia ice cream, a Shama bird comes to visit. Such an incredible song:) sandy McMaster just told us about it Friday night.
