Gecko Taking a Shower

Not only did I see the Milky Way and a meteor while taking an outdoor shower in the rain, I also saw a gecko when I turned on the light. This is one of the few photos I’ve taken while naked.

Sam Sleeping

With only 8 days left till we go back home we find ourselves thinking about our last meals, what books we can finish and how many times we need to go into town. I haven’t been anywhere in weeks or worn shoes and a shirt in just as long. What to be for Halloween has been looming large on the kids’ minds as of late as well.

Our friends Kim and Keoki have come over to visit from Maui. Kim was Sam’s kindergarden teacher in Santa Monica and now teaches parent toddler classes at the Haleakala Waldorf School. It’s always great catching up with them. The kids all love Keoki’s stories like “Eddie and the Barracuda”, “Eddie and the Pig Hunt”, “Keoki Kills the Car”, “Keoki and the Ghost and the Wallet”, and “Uncle George and the Hammerhead”. Usually we surf together, but this year Keoki’s shoulder has been acting up and after he leaves Kauai it’s off to Oahu for shoulder surgery. Can’t wait till we hear “Keoki’s Shoulder Surgery Story”. I’m sure it will have a happy ending. Good Luck Keoki.

Group Shot

This shot was a toughie. Ollie threw a football point blank at Debbie, knocking the wind out of her and reducing her to tears, Ollie ran away, it started to rain and Simon started to cry.

Speaking of meals, this spider has been getting fatter and fatter every day. She’s been eating bugs, flies and moths.
