Should Of Had The Window Seat!

 This is an aerial view of a post I did awhile back of the Wailoa River in Hilo (1) & (2 here)

(Singing Bridge below)

An early morning surprise -(first time either of us had flown in a helicopter) a Christmas present from our son)..

 With only a cup of coffee down, this is little of what we saw below -

These are mac nut (macadameian) fields My Grandparent's used to have a tree when they retired in Sierra Madre Ca.  I can remember cracking them with a hammer in our back yard- very tasty! Of course there are a variety of ways to use them from cookies to mac nut crusted fish.
(I haven't had dinner yet)

Crater-reminds me of fingers venting..

I've never seen a tattoo quite like our Pilot had, have you?

The Pacific Ocean- around 8:30 this morning

Below..I've included a bunch of relieved trees- chatting below!

Quite a soft contrast from the flow..

This is why-

The house you see is the last remaining when Kalapana (Royal Garden's subdivision) was

taken by the flow in the beginning of 1990's-

As I understand (Jack Thompson)- owner, has turned his home into a B & B..I guess you'd have quite a hike? Still, the up side would be working up a good appetite! Hmm..

Psalm 19

For the director of music. A psalm of David.

The heavens declare the glory of God;

the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

Day after day they pour forth speech;

night after night they display knowledge.

There is no speech or language

where their voice is not heard.

Might not get another post up in time so hey-

Happy New Year to all!!
