2/365

Incline Your ear to me, and hear my speech
Show Your marvelous lovingkindness by Your right hand,
O You who save these who trust in You
From those who rise up against them
       Psalm 17:6-7

Manoa Falls is on the island of Oahu in Hawaii.  The hike is 1.6 miles RT uphill but not terrible and it ends at a waterfall/pool.   Some steps along the way.  The trail was pretty wet near the top but otherwise pretty well groomed.  We did the trail on a Sat morning so it was very crowded.
We started out at a Tea House, then made our way 
 to the trail which was a short drive from the Tea House.


Off to the left of the trail to the waterfall is another trail leading to an arboretum which
I hope to get to some time this winter.  
There usually aren't very many flowers blooming in the arboretums in 
Hawaii during the winter, but they're pretty interesting
anyway.

Late Post for Tuesday, 3/3

The first two images here were not taken yesterday. I wanted to post them in honor of Trish's post. This is the kind of thing you can see on a regular basis around Oahu. Whether or not you agree with the war, or war of any type, we need to be thankful and grateful for the military. I'm honored to be amongst so many of them here in Hawaii.


These next two images are from Tuesday. This is my new home-away-from-home, away-from-home for the next 30 days. I don't know what took me so long to realize I could join this gym. But I've done it now and I'm psyched!!
