Aloha!
Alas, yes we are back. Lovely weather you've been having while we were gone to paradise. I'm glad to see you have been keeping up the blog. It's nice to know you can carry on without us. I'm also glad to see the rest of you get your Christmas lists up. You almost waited too long! Also, welcome Ryan. I hope you will be dropping by here on a regular basis. It's so nice to read your voice......
So anyway, Chet is working his butt off now trying to catch up on work he missed. I am going through a mountain of mail and trying to get all the pictures off of the two cameras and put them in some kind of order for your personal enjoyment. I will be putting a slideshow together soon and will let you all know what the link is for that. It may take awhile though. This particular picture was taken on the southeastern shore where the blowhole is. On this tour we first went snorkeling near "Robin Master's" Estate, you know from "Magnum P.I." In Hawaii all the beaches are publicly accessable. No private beaches. That is sooo cool. After snorkeling, we headed further north and went boogie boarding! After boogie boarding, we headed over to the Ko'olau Golf Club for lunch then from their parking lot headed out on a 2.3 mile hike up through the rain forest to a lovely waterfall. It was so spectacular the pictures just don't do it justice.
Sorry this is just a tease, I will try to get the whole story down with pictures as soon as possible.
