No new photos today – But, I did delete a bunch of images and got 10GB back. However, I did miss a photo op. A boat ran aground about 1.5 miles south. I walked down that way late this morning – just to keep the FitBit happy. And, I decided not to take my camera. Well, as you might imagine – when I got about a mile up the road – there were two what looked like commercial fishing boats hauling the wrecked boat off the rocks. A couple of fearless divers stuffed floaties under the boat. Things seemed to be going well. I’ll read about it tomorrow.
I have mentioned that our little drinking village with the fishing problem is not exactly 21st century ready. For instance – we can not afford to open the beach/public restrooms on holidays. A little lame – but – this is Kona. What do you expect?
Well, one hopes that Honolulu/Waikiki can keep their public/beach bathrooms open everyday. Usually they do. But yesterday, the biggest restrooms were closed. Waikiki ran out of toilet paper. Yep, we have Costco here in Hawai’i. You would think that someone would have been resourceful enough to just go buy a case or two. But, no, they just closed the potties. Take that beach going visitors. Welcome to paradise.
I went to lunch today with 3 other widow women. There was a thing on TV yesterday about some guy who died last year – but he had arranged for the local florist to deliver flowers to his wife for the rest of her life. We four women noted that we never got valentine flowers from our husbands while they were alive. And none of us felt unloved for lack of flowers either while our guys were alive or dead.
