A Rock and A Rainbow....

See the rock on the right of the picture? As a child , during the winter I got stuck behind it..... The Big Winter waves of Waimea Bay Oahu, pushed me on a collision course with that little rock, my life flashed before my eyes.... I was pulled to safety by one of my friends....

That rainbow lives out there.... I've taken many pictures of her....and each and every time I take this particular shot, I remember that day . Its GOOD to be alive..... I love that I can CHOOSE how I wish to live, that I can live a good life between A Rock And a Rainbow!!



p.s. yes thats two birds flying UNDER the rainbow..... it just magnificent out there!!


I am a grateful Island gal.........

Returning Home

It is time for me to return to the North Shore full time. It is at Waimea Bay on the North Shore of Oahu, that I sit and wait for the tell tale ripples of water that signal the DOLPINS have arrived! The water calming down from the massive winter waves that just a few weeks ago pounded this side of the island, i return to her shores full time with glee! I will be subjected to the teasing of the regulars at the Bay who jokingly say, "Wheres the dolphins, Lani?" I always say in my mind, "There are far worse places I would need to wait!" LOLOL. This weekend the Bay gave a sneak performance of how magnificent her waters will be! Clear beautiful water, clean beautiful sand, the sun creating stain glass window like patterns on the sandy sea floor. And if that isn't enough the days of spring and summer on the North shore of Oahu, end with sunsets that are just magic!

They swam by me at mach speed swimming into the bay.. they turned around and passed me again checking out my orange swimsuit. I dont think they like it...LOL... It was good to see them.. they played tag with me for awhile, back and forth, back and forth. Finally exhausted i hauled myself out of the water and watched as they came close to shore , if i would of stayed in the water i would of got some major pics. I was just too tired,they are much much better swimmers than i am... lol...till next time.... I am an island gal.......
