A L O H A From Honolulu!

South Shore Oahu, Honolulu
I think things are beautiful
when you don’t plan them,
and you don’t have any
expectations, and you’re
not trying to get
somewhere in particular.

Feathered Hula Ornaments
[of a kind]



Blue Skies
Shades of Green
Vivid Fuchsia Blossoms
Dance a Rising Diagonal
Taking My Spirit
With Them
As Long As
We Wish to
Linger.

What I like

Let's go from nowhere
to somewhere!
Trust, It's just
a step ahead.

  2. Horseless carriage 26 is probably worth a lot more now than when it was made.

  3. Aloha from Austria!
    Wow, the Feathered Hula Ornaments are stunning! And I love vintage cars :-) But what I enjoy most is nature, so the plants and animals you show really thrill me!
    Happy weekend!

  8. Cool post! I love the pictures of the dancer with feathered ornaments followed by the bird way up high protecting its feathers, only to be stalked by Pixie in her penthouse, who may try to help get the feathers with her next step :) The first shot of the other side of Oahu is also magnificent.

  11. Love the woody. When I was little my friend's dad had an old one. He wasn't a surfer, just still driving an old car he'd had for many years. It was wearing out, there was a hole in the floor under the driver's feet where you could see the road below zipping by. - Margy
