Saw The Beach Boys in concert last night. Been wanting to see them perform for a long time.




The amazing part was how positive and upbeat the even was. Folks were dancing, beach balls were a bouncing all over the place. From young kids to grandparents were rocking out to the tunes.

Great sunset shot P911dad!

Wife and I had our first CV19 go round on Feb 10th, not too bad, couple crappy feeling days and then better daily.
Flew off to the Hawaiian islands for a couple weeks to fully recuperate at the end of the month.
It worked great!!!

I'm partial to hitting at least a couple islands each trip, 3 island tour this time-
Maui for 6
Molokai for 4
Oahu for 4

Fantastic blend, going from new overrun Maui to old Hawaii AKA Molokai and then really overrun Oahu, stayed up on the NE side of Oahu to minimize the crowds- no dice.

Maui



Molokai patiently waits 45 miles away








Take a wild guess who was performing down in the high rent district South side

Thanks! I took that from a place we used to have in Makaha on Oahu. i used my Serengeti sunglasses as a filter for the sunset. You keep up your great photos, I enjoy them! Glenn

After the last update, my iPhone is acting wonky when taking low light photos. It turns things green. You can see a tiny bit of that in the two top photos. But other than the green, this was the sunrise this morning. I went outside to check it out because I saw a tree trunk that had a strong red/orange tint, and thought "wow, the sunrise must be amazing"

Bike ride around the local airport 9 years ago with my son.
I noticed he was having to wait for me, used to be the other way round

Nope, nope- Female and goes by two names

Apparently one needs a lot of alcohol to watch or keep watching the performance-
It was a private event to some extent, not showing on her concert line up calendar
