Flowers and Things

Dear Members, Please excuse the lack of posts recently–your intrepid editor got stung by some super strong tropical insect and hasn’t had the use of her thumb (or really her brain) for several days. I’ve wanted to share the beautiful flower arrangements for Thanksgiving that I ordered via the Club, and the interesting shots Bill […]

Tropical Growth

The trees were severely cut back at the end of April. Now look at them!

Paradise in Bloom

It’s that time of year when all the trees are in bloom! In April, the treecutters were here, cutting the trees down to the quick. But never mind. It’s the tropics–the growth spurts are amazing.

A New Perspective

One of the benefits of slowing down and staying put is the opportunity to look at what’s around us and actually see it. Foliage abounds at my feet, but I rarely stop to appreciate it.

Tropical Storm Hits at Sunset

The air all day at Hualalai had been thick with humidity. It was hot and sticky until the afternoon, when the breezes picked up. Then the rains came, an unexpected deluge. It created an eery sunset. It’s these kinds of weather events that make the tropics and Hualalai special, but they can play havoc with […]

Spring Has Sprung
