"Labor Day in Waikoloa"

Wanting to get away from the Labor Day crowds and find a quiet spot to paint, I headed south in Ole Blue (my pickup truck) with no real place in mind. Just gave her rein, and she turned into the Hilton Waikoloa area and parked herself. What, no ocean view?! This was my scenery, looking mauka toward Mauna Kea. I painted peacefully for a good part of the morning , while in the distance I could hear happy bikers thundering down the highway.
