Back from a 3 week Hawaiian get away, Big Island for 7 days and Kauai for a couple weeks.
I love waking up, meandering to the coffee pot and sitting out on the lanai to watch sunrise, Humpbacks breaching and early bird surfers. Mmmm, Hawaii Nene's http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648144720.jpg Not a Nene http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648144720.jpg The Black Pearl lives on http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648144720.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648144720.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648144720.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648144720.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648144720.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648144720.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648144720.jpg |
Spent a full day at Volcano National park, walked the Kilauea Iki trail, crater rim trail and the Devastation trail... right at 10 miles on foot and 2 quarts of water that got returned to the atmosphere as sweat.
Sooo surreal! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648145271.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648145271.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648145271.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648145271.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648145271.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648145271.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648145271.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648145271.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648145271.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648145271.jpg |

I admire you carrying that kit, Skip. It's not what I would consider 'light of weight'.
Thanks for sharing your pics with us all. |

You Bet Scott! I'm happy peeps enjoy them, I'm lucky to be able to drag my carcass around a bit, never get tired of travel and new discoveries in familiar old areas! I'm the guy with a rucksack and too much junk along, I do enjoy photography! My last drive up to Baker Lake was great until it wasn't... thought I was having transmission issues of some kind on the way back, motor was running warm so I nursed it back until I got into town and it was close to home when something let loose in the engine. Barely got it home, cushioned by knowing a new to me motor was being built and I wouldn't be leaving the car out in beer bottle range. More on all that soon, fresh thread material...

This is a first.
Lived on the far over 25 years and I have never seen a dead Osprey on land. I have rescued one from the water with a broken wing, but I have never come across this before. From my walk/ride with Dottie today. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648578403.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648578403.jpg Found the Osprey near the water. The head is still there but I did not disturb it today...the weather hear have been very, very cold and I am sure a fox or other predator will claim it later. If it is still there tomorrow afternoon, I'll call the Department of Natural Resources and they can do whatever they need to do. I won't even pick up feather from Ospreys or the Bald Eagles that surround the farm. Dottie seemed very concerned. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1648578615.jpg |
