Mele Kalikimaka!





The only way we know it's nearly Christmas is that the Poinsettia are blooming.
Mele Kalikimaka!


Ripe coffee cherry on the neighbors' farms looks like Christmas too.
In September, Mark's Aunt Louise visited from Washington, DC.
Here we are enjoying the farm market in Hilo, on the other side of the island.




Django enjoyed a few days at Paws University while we traveled to Hilo.

October 23 was the first anniversary of Kate's knee replacements.
We hiked down the steep Pololu Valley trail. And back up!

Pololu Valley is lovely.

Django made new friends at the Pololu Valley black sand beach.


Swimming in November!
Mark demonstrates how NOT to go off the water slide.

We started a small business growing herbs.
Captain Cook Farm Fresh Island Rosemary on the local grocery shelf.
The garden is full of green things - bananas

And avocados
And bright green Jackson's Chameleons

To shining sea

And a black-crowned night heron
