Feast of Thanksgiving

Thank God for dirty dishes, they have a tale to tell.
While other folks go hungry,
we're eating pretty well.
With home, and health,and happiness,
We shouldn't want to fuss;
For by this stack of evidence,
God's been very good to us.

Hawaii

Back to reality...Monday morning and back to work after 2 weeks in paradise!

It was a wonderful trip! Snorkeling in Molokini Crater off of Maui and at the Na Pali Coast of Kauai; deep sea fishing-the yellow fin tuna was delicious; kayaking up the Waimea River and sight-seeing both Maui and Kauai, including the infamous Highway to Hana! It was 78-85 degrees, mostly sunny and I wasn't cold for the entire 2 weeks!
