Kahala at dawn

This was the first morning in nearly a month that I walked down the street to Waialae Beach Park to watch the sunrise.

Bad weather, and health issues, had kept me away.

During that interim, the sunrise has moved from about 6:44 a.m. to 6:22 a.m.

That’s what made me realize how long it has been!

In any case, I just wanted to share the morning’s photos.

One sad note for the morning. Sylvie, the beautiful Husky, was walking alone with her people this morning. I had to ask, and learned that her partner, Leila, had been diagnosed with cancer and died since we last saw them in October. Another fine dog gone.

    A beautiful picture. Reminder of the beauty we have to be careful not to take for granted. Hope you’re doing better.

    Your recent life events mirror nature at the moment. Calm waters have returned to Waialae Beach Park after last month’s storms, and are reflective of time spent in recuperation and recovery. Inspiration for the journey.

    Hi Ian –
    Thank you for the hopeful sunrise pics.
    A return to a bit of normality.
    We were on the Big Island during the second Kona Low bashing of Oahu.
    Frightening.
    Saw YouTube pics of my 1970s street in Manoa with water so deep and fast I would not put my drift boat in it.
    In Puako we were largely spared; just one 6-hour storm with more thunder and lightning than in all my 12 years in HI.
    What a buggy ride.

      And we have another three days or so of potentially heavy rain coming in this week! At times like this I am very glad we moved from Kaaawa to Kahala. Kaaawa was vulnerable to flooding, power outages, road closures, etc., etc. Our immediate neighborhood now is far less vulnerable.

        …. and I am very glad for you folks… our weather patterns were once, much more predictable. We should probably expect the unexpected going forward.
