Happy New Year! Hau'oli Makahiki Hou!! Here's wishing you a New Year filled with creating reality out of that which your mind dreams and your heart touches!
A Blue Moon ushered out 2009 last night. Tonight Rob & I will watch moon rise over Lanikai beach... the 1st of 2010. May this 1st day of the New Year bring you joy.

FINALLY updated my name on FriendFeed. Was off line for most of the month - between the honeymoon and Rob sharing a nasty bug with me we brought back from the mainland. It's good to be home and on the mend! Posted a wedding album on Facebook for friends http://www.facebook.com/album... Will start engaging again tomorrow!

Posted by friends in the know: "WARNING!! Don't (WE REPEAT DO NOT) go into/open the group "WE'RE AGAINST THE 4.99 A MONTH CHARGE FOR FACEBOOK FROM JUNE 30TH 2010" It has a VICIOUS VIRUS in a link that opens unstoppable windows with horrific images of humans in states of mutilation. EVERYONE REPOST TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS! HURRY!!"
Mahalo for all your wonderful wedding congratulations!!! Sorry I've been absent. Caught a nasty bug on the mainland.
Finally well enough to get some things done just in the St. Nick of time for Christmas!
Now here's a picture you don't expect to see in Hawaii! Took it at Koko Crater w/ my CrackBerry.

What are those thingys?
- Jim Turner
Way out kind of looks like the cactus was placed on purpose
- JuneM
Very cool pic!
- Tracey Smith
which island was this ?
- Dana Duvauchelle
This picture was taken at Kokohead Crater Botanical Gardens about a 5 minutes walk from the Plummeria grove! Inside the crater it's a desert. The other vegetation is watered... like the hibiscus and the plummeria.
- Arleen Boyd
Isn't a lot of Hawaii originally desert (certainly the volcano peaks above the tree line are mountain deserts) a lot of the west coasts were deserts until some 19th century/early 20th century irrigation projects.
- Brian Sullivan
Jim, those are barrel cactus and what looks like a yucca. Hawaii isn't completely tropical so it's not that unexpected.
- Admiral Anika
Koko crater is on Oahu, out on the east side of the island, near Hawaii Kai (neighborhood), on the way to Sandy Beach, Makapuu Beach, etc. There are horse stables there and hiking. It's pretty nice.
- Morgan Haley
Yes Morgan! It is amazingly beautiful. Brian - The state of Hawaii has 11 of the 13 micro-climates in the world. I believe we have 9 of them here on the island of Oahu. The Big Island has a few more micro-climates with the height of their mountains.
- Arleen Boyd
very cool and yes, that is NOT what I'd expect in Hawaii...thanks for sharing.
- Tracey Smith
We're enjoying the wine country VERY much! Lovely suite with a fireplace and big jacuzzi tub at Bel Abri... Rob is loving the beauty of the Napa Valley! =).
Popped in to change my "status" to married! Will post pics soon... but I'm kinda busy now! *giggle*.

Another beautiful day on Oahu... sharing blueberry coffee cake and Kona with my future mom-in-law. Wedding countdown... FOUR days!
It's rough on the spouse's of the deployed. My prayers go out for all those being deployed from the island today and their families. May you have a speedy and safe return.
My future daughter-in-law's husband, Angel, is deploying today. Going to the Windward side of the island to support her. Prayers for Angel.
It's POWER MODE MONDAY! Jamming through a mega size "To Do" list. Powered by Hawaiian Kona Coffee of course!
Just saw someone posted a link w/ a virus on my wall. Thankfully someone else posted that it was a bad link! I removed it. BE CAREFUL of mysterious links! Mahalo!
Filled out our marriage license on line but must take it to the Department of Health in person. OMG! Rob typed our "race" as "WHITE" cause he wasn't sure how to spell Caucasian! LMAO! Maybe he should have put down "White Mut" or simply...

"Nascar" would have been a great answer :-)

Well I haven't done THAT in months! I tweeted over the speed limit and now Twitter won't post my updates! Guess I've got my grove back! *giggle*.
The one decision I haven't made is on the flowers... I want them to be simple, reflect Hawaii. No lilies (funeral flowers). And reflect fall colors. The guys will wear mailes. Girls carry small bouquets. A "lava flow" of flowers will spill down a volcano of 3 bundt cakes. Suggestions??
