Re: Peppercorn in Paradise

Here is a trio of photos I was lucky enough to capture of a pair of beautiful Hawaiian Nene Geese near a favorite taro field on Kaua'i. They were "talking" to me the whole time. These gorgeous geese are the state bird of Hawai'i, endangered, and the rarest goose in the world. http...

Patti & I finally arrived on our favorite place on the planet this afternoon. Here's proof ... a quickly snapped shot through our aircraft's window of one of our first views of Kauai. Hooray!

Re: Peppercorn in Paradise

Thanks, Alan! My new portable oxygen concentrator arrived today ... finally. We have to pay the penalty on Hawaiian Airlines for changing our flight before we can contest it.

Re: Peppercorn in Paradise

Still trapped in paradise. And, we're having to do other people's work for them! No surprise. FEDEX should deliver my new machine in the next few hours, but it may be too late to book a new flight to Kauai without paying a stupid premium rate. It's looking more like we'll be getting...

Re: Peppercorn in Paradise

Thanks, Doug and June. We're still stuck on Oahu, awaiting my new machine so that we can re-book our flight to Kauai. We're now paying for a hotel in Waikiki and our condo in Kauai. It's getting very expensive, but we hope to turn a corner today, with any luck.

Peppercorn in Paradise

Yesterday's (Saturday's) News — It's been a long, weird, stressful day in paradise. We were awakened very early this morning by the alarms on my O2 machine (new one) which was failing, causing my oxygen levels to plummet. Things became very convoluted very quickly, begin...

Sorry to see this majestic old tree cut down, frankly. It's beautiful, and will grace our nation's capitol, though.
