July 1, 2025 My neighbor had shiped his artwork and display racks to Oahu for the Haleiwa Arts Festival a couple of weeks ago, and then had to ship it back to Hawai’i island after the festival was over.

Nine More Days
April 20, 2025 I leave for Hawaii in nine more days . . . or is it eight? I leave on the 29th at 6:30 AM, so does that day really count? What about today? Does today count towards the days until I leave? . . . Maybe I should say that my flight takesContinue reading “Nine More Days”
Marching Towards the Mainland
March 2, 2025 This morning was spent over at the neighbor’s property building a form on top of the gate column. I removed the 2 x 4’s from the second coumn that we were using as a guide, and used these as my form material and as legs to support the forms. Then I removedContinue reading “Marching Towards the Mainland”
