sunset sail
The number of sleeps until Maui is now in the single digits! I’ve planned sight-seeing/photography activities for six of the ten days, leaving room to read by the pool, go to the beach, and just generally laze about if that’s what the day feels like.

Sheringham Point Lighthouse
I was going through my pictures to find something I haven’t posted before and realized I never got around to posting pictures from a walk to the Sheringham Point Lighthouse (built in 1912) near Sooke on Vancouver Island from a trip there in June.

daisies at Orveas Bay

Oh Maui, It’s On!
This Kaanapali Beach scene (taken a couple of hours before I got on the plane to come home in March 2011) has been the desktop picture on my laptop for quite awhile… …in about six weeks or so, hopefully, I’ll have a a new version!

wheat field on a dreary Saturday afternoon
As much as I’ve decided that I’m going to get outside more this winter and not complain about how long winter is (I just have to get up the courage to put on the skates I bought recently and go skating for the first time in over twenty years), I miss summer, even the dreary…

feels like -43
It’s cold here. The first week of January is always cold. It’s minus 30, but with the windchill it feels like -43. So, Kaanapali Beach in Maui is looking pretty darn appealing right about now…

frosted window
Just a few pretty frost pics for my first post of the year…
