I have flown into Kalaupapa Airport-Lup in my trusty Seahawk.

So just about three months in the "Rehomed" dog has settled in. On our drive around the farm today:

She brings more drift wood off the beach than a tourist.

Horrible weather, poor turn-out, and the few cars that did show up are just beaters!

I thought I had a Bur Oak, but it turns out it's just a white oak. I'm not complaining either way.

Wailau Valley

In the '60s, we boys would be dropped off at Wailau for the weekend by our fishermen dads. We'd bodysurf, fish, explore the valley, and battle mosquitos for a couple days, then get picked up mid-day Sunday for the gut-churning return to Oahu. Good times ..

He was promised a test if he met goals. Has he been given a ride?

Great shot Mark!!

Made the 5 hour drive to Pacific City Friday before last, raining like mad, hiway 101 closed at Tillamook due to flooding and no cell service in areas had me follow the compass. Hit a nice two lane (Whisky Creek road, sounded fine to me) it had some dicey spots with thankfully only inch's of running water crossing in spots.

Destination was a Bachelors party arranged by my son for his best buddy Luke in the wee village of Tierra Del Mar, featuring no cell service, why talk to people who aren't with you?

Cool upside down boat shaped rental with direct beach access, ping pong in the garage and great views. We stayed till Monday at about 8 am for another insanely monsoon-ish drive back North.
Great timing.

Payoff was the time spent with some of my favorite dudes, visits to Pelican Pub in town for great beer and grub plus, Saturday dawned flippin perfect=clear skies and no wind.

Don't know about a formal test - this was a one-off for giggles at the Velocity Invitational event in Mika's 1998 championship car.
