It was my first morning back to Hawaii. We’d been gone for three months and I was thrilled to just sit on my lanai and savor Hualalai’s serenity. Then I heard the unmistakable sound of a helicopter’s rotator blades coming closer…and closer. I looked up and sure enough saw a helicopter approach, low enough that […]

Summer is right around the corner! The summer trees are blooming, the baby Francolins are venturing on a walk, there’s interesting yachts in the water and the campus is filling up! Screenshot […] Spring has sprung many kids from school so they could enjoy their Spring Break at Hualalai. It’s been fun seeing so many families enjoying their Hawaiian time together although it was kind of a shock seeing a two-year-old driving a cart down Waiulu Street. (just kidding…I think.) With overflow seating at the pools, people got […] I had to pull my sweatshirt back out on Thursday night at 5:30 PM when the weather did a 180. Back to WINDY and COLD with mauka rain in Waimea.

[…] Hualalai, because of winter swells, has been treated to strong large waves for the last few weeks, a sight to behold. “Winter swells are more typically ground swells than wind swells. They are coming from much further away; therefore they bring with them more power and might.”

Then Kelly’s Tree Service provided further viewing pleasure! These guys were up and down the palm trees, hacking off fronds the old fashioned way! […] When I was on the Mainland last week, the checker at the market asked about the weather in Hawaii. “Does it ever rain?” she asked. “It’s the tropics so it could rain everyday,” I said. “But where we live at Hualalai, it’s mostly sunny with a few clouds.” Fast forward five days and I’m driving […] photo by David Taran After technical difficulties and your editor’s journey, there have been no posts. But here we go! Hopefully!
True winter is here for the first time in several years. Hualalai is a vortex of beauty for the “chilly” weather. Thanks to Bob Holman for the Mauna Kea view from Hualalai golf course. Thanks to David Taran for the sunset photo taken between the tropical downpours. Thanks to Pam […] Sunsets, the stars and the moon all glow over Hualalai in March.

[…] I love that when the sun is setting, everyone stops for a few minutes to stare at the horizon. It is a special moment that inspires awe in all of us. (Okay, not the little kids. They’re still running around or digging in the sand or throwing rocks into the water. I also love that […] With no vog filling the sky, the sun sets yellow. No matter where you stand, it’s an awesome sight. Green flashes abound!

At this time of year, the mild weather permits us to do so much here. We can be outside all day and all night (the full moon lights our way).
