Stop Look See

A   L   O   H   A  !

speaks bliss

Hurricane Update: 
The largest Hawaiian island is named "Hawaii." 
 We call it "The Big Island."

 The storm caused wind damage on the 
east side of The Big Island; 
Some folks may be without power 
into next week - or longer. 

But there were no deaths, and NO hurricane
has ever touched the Big Island.
[Iselle was a Tropical Storm when they met]

We are on Oahu 
"The Gathering Place" 
where Honolulu and Waikiki are. 

Everything here is normal. 

All the prayer and positive intentions WORKED!  
Thanks for YOUR caring questions!





"Keep your eyes 
wide open before marriage,
 and half-shut afterwards."
                               Benjamin Franklin










" There are always flowers
 for those who 
want to see them. "
                     Henri Matisse

Thanks!

  8. So so happy Iselle was "only" a tropical storm when she "met" the Big Island, and that no one was killed. Hope the power is restored quickly. And very very glad that you did not meet Iselle! Matisse quote is my favorite this week.

    Thank you.

  14. Have you noticed that the Hawaii newscasters keep calling the Big Island, Hawaii Island? However the mainland anchors are calling it the Big Island. Why don't they give up already and just let it be the Big Island again, for goodness sakes!?!
