I am thoroughly enjoying your photos. Its really like being able to take a little trip of life in Hawaii..a place I used to only dream of living.
Gotta tell ya..if you are fascinated by curling bark, you should see the lovely yard of one of my friends. She has tons of birch trees out front on a huge piece of land and they are all "curling" right now. It looked liked a different sort of wonderland the other day. Isn't nature incredible?! I've only been more into nature in a bigger way the last couple of years. God and His gifts! Your family looks wonderful and I love that retreat center area..oh my goodness! Breathtaking!
Great pics -- you had a busy week! I think I should definitely plan for a retreat in Hawaii -- that picture of the babbling brook looks like the definition of the word "retreat."
What a lovely week you've had. I loved the pictures. I miss banyan trees!
Beautiful pictures. I love the trees. Thanks for sharing.
Yay! I have added you to my blog roll so I know when you update. I have MISSED you!!!
