I felt like more hiking today.Hawaii is going through another pretty bad drought.Trees and shrubs are barren and dying. I remember this occurance a few years back when we were visiting. I pray God helps the land here and brings some rain. I took a hike at Manuka State Park.The excersise felt good. The clarity to my mind was the best. I LOVE this Island. I respect it.

The Pit Crater

Great morning for a walk and decision making

I set out this morning on a mile walk up and down the hills looking at the southern most tip of the U.S called south Point. I snooped around the home I saw yesterday and found out it is a cluster. A main house 4 bedroom, a Ohana smaller home,which is the one I would want on it's own.And another 2 room cottage. A perfect set up for a permanent home and rentals. Not to be. I am finding my peace and happiness this time with my visit to Hawaii.I am not finding the right feel of a place to buy.Which I have to accept that it probably won't happen.Kurt is very settled in Oregon and can not feel what I have in my heart.He gave me the go ahead to do what I needed to do,but unless he feels what I do,It will not happen.And I am hoping that is going to be ok for me. I have a great marriage and a beautiful home and lifestyle in Oregon,no beach or daily warmth,no turtles or dolphins. No fresh Mahi Mahi 20 minutes out of the water..but I know where to come to find all this.And this is always what we can come visit to..for now anyway. :)

Go with the car,A day of Dolphins

I woke up today and was not sure where I was headed.I spoke with the couple who live here and rent the yurts.They told me about a house around the corner that just was listed.I took a peek and it is really cute.I left a message with my realtor to get back to me.Still waiting. I got in the car and headed North. My first stop was a place that is private in a sub division.Black pebble sand.I only saw 6 people while I was there.Casey who I met yesterday told me about it. Then I felt like another new beach. Ho'okena.I was looking out over the bay and there they were.The Dolphins.I set off about 80 yards or so off shore.I counted 24 all in a row swimming. Another day I will never forget. No people.so relaxing..

Swimming with the Dolphins,I counted 24.

Feeling Really Good!

I woke up this morning and felt so amazing.I do not ever recommend going on a discovery trip with the flu. I wanted to fly home so bad last night to my boys. I slept 12 hours and woke up to a new beginning. I visited with the local hair stylist,another realtor and made a wonderful connection with Casey and her son Nauki,who I met at Maloli'i beach.A place that was populated with friendly locals enjoying a baby shower and fishing. Nauki who is about 1 1/2 years old came and grabbed my hand. He was showing me his dad who was surfing.His Mom Casey was apologetic to him being so friendly. I of course loved it.She assumed I was a local,which i feel I am at this point.Her and her husband are looking to buy a home around here. I spent the day at the beach and did nothing but watch the ocean and a teenager try to spearfish dinner with no success. I went up to the home I am looking at to buy. It has a amazing view of South Point.
