Friday Feb 16 Update



Today we took an easy day. We went whale watching and then went to Hapuna Beach. It was choppy on the ocean, so we didn’t see as many whales as usual, but we had several breaches up close to us. They are so amazing! The wind was so hard at Hapuna Beach that we didn’t stay long. It felt like we were getting sand blasted. We did walk the length of the beach once and stayed until Doris was afraid she was getting past enough sun. So, we came home and got the laundry done and juiced before the grapefruit could get ahead of us. J How blessed we are! The juice is wonderful; I’m sure going to miss it when I get home and don’t have fresh juice!

The pictures today are from yesterday’s exploring. The first one is Don, Doris and Jerry at Waipio Valley Lookout. The second one is of a beautiful Japanese garden in Hilo where we had our picnic lunch. The third one is Doris, Don and Jerry right on the edge of the crater of the volcano. You can see the steam coming up behind them.


Remember: you can see more details in these pictures if you’ll double click on them. Have a great weekend; I hope you are warm. Think of this: God loves us everyday, way more than any Valentine’s card can say. It blows me away how much He loves us. I love you the best I can.

  2. Hi, Brent and Zelma! Jerry got a picture of a whale breaching today! That's a first. Nobody else has been quick enough to get such a thing. It's on his camera, so I can't post it; ugh. He'll send me a copy on a cd later and I can put it on the blog, then, maybe. Anyway, we're sure having fun with them here. We think of you all often as we go over places we know you've been. Thanks for remembering us in your thoughts and prayers! Love you, Jo
