Shannon does it again

I just finished reading Book of a Thousand Days by Shannon Hale and I love, love, loved it! I think it is her best written book yet and may be my new favorite. I'm a big fan of Shannon Hale.

Captain Wentworth

Tonight we discussed Persuasion for Relief Society book club (and watched the movie). While I cannot say that Persuasion is my favorite Jane Austen book, Captain Wentworth is certainly a worthy hero.

Love North Shore

This is Shark's Cove, the beach right across the street from where we are staying.

Delicious cakes at Ted's Bakery in Sunset Beach.

Dad's birthday shave ice at Matsumoto's. He had to get the one with condensed milk on top.

Pretty flowers in Waialua. This is a neighborhood where many former sugar workers live. The sugar plantation was owned by C&H and was in operation until 1996.

Hawaiian Temple to Lono, god of agriculture and harvests, weather, sports and medicine.

Supposedly, this is a beach where Lost is filmed....Does it look familiar to you? Wait, is that Jin fishing on that rock over there?
