One of the Many Reasons to Love Hawaii

So wondering around the roads in the mountains looking at lots, I found myself in a precarious position,
on a very steep road leading no where but over some large boulders and into the trees,
too steep and dusty to back out,
Super sweet Farmer Pepe to the rescue with his bulldozer!

Enjoying Life in the Country



gorgeous sun sets,

the view from lot 95, a 5 acre track of woods up in the mountains,

wild birds,
yes, Hawaii has wild peacocks,







Erica works so hard, the farmer of past generations is coming out in our sweet girl,

lot 18, 5.6 acres.

Chapel with Pastor Frank

The kids love when Pastor Frank is there for chapel on Wednesdays.
He did the neatest lesson on creation, the first three days God created and then the next three days He filled the creation.

Hana



Hana has the sweetest disposition, she is pretty smart too,

Erica picked the brightest halter-rainbow

a visit with the Gaelic farrier for a pedicure,


hoof care,


doing chores,


Erik welding stalls,
Hana's tack and feed,



Hawaii is so Fun

We have palm tree scorpions which Erik caught among our shoes,
Waialua Sugar Mill, the last sugar plantation on Oahu, closed in 1996. The workers camp was still inhabited by former Filipino laborers until 2000.
east meets west,

giant (sugar) cane spiders
giant snails (Erica thought it was a slug with a wing)
crazy mascots,
AFC practicing,




the Ravens' Ray Lewis,

really? this was a private practice for military families...the group least likely to need armed police to keep crowd control or from harming the field and players,
NFC practicing, that field cam is huge,
silent drill team,

they had a good morning of hunting wild pig...just another normal thing to see around Hawaii.
