4.'eha

took this shot last Friday morning from the deck of a catamaran, sailing out of Anaehoomalu Bay. Picture this..... gliding along under sail...listening to "Iz",... just the sound of wind and water ...the warm tropical morning sun....and THAT view. Ahhhh.....Twas me. (well, someone's gotta do it!). as we came in there were some kitesurfers just flying! across the water around us, it was all so unbelieveably beautiful. I'll get back to this another day (my~ ahem~ "new profession" as a sailor! hoo boy)!
saw a wild kid (baby goat) as we were driving down to Kua Bay. We stopped, he stopped, we all just looked at each other from about 10 feet away, but when I reached for my camera he stepped into the shadows of the keawe trees . it was beautiful how he blended in. it would be nice to think they're all around us, in the shadows, peacefully. and I actually do hear them bleating in the evening sometimes.

I miss seeing the donkeys that used to wander the lava. will the wild horses of Waipio be the next to disappear? to be replaced by coqui frogs??? sheeeeshhh....


ahhh the glorious waves, the sweet rolling surf is back. Novice surfer that I am, I still enjoy it even on the "inside." I can only imagine what it must feel like on the "outside", riding the "big ones"! They have my awe and my respect (both the surfers and the waves!) truly a graceful sport , this sport of kings.

these are a few more from my "surf series" ,
I've finished all but one. again, they are oils on wood panels. now I'm thinking of doing a "huuuuge" one...we'll see,,,another day, another painting, another wave.....


aloha,
Lynn
