    On a Clear Day, You Can See Maui


    On A Clear Day You Can See Maui. Above Honoka'a, looking out to sea and the dark shape rising up out of the sea on the horizon is Haleakala, the volcano that forms the bulk of the island of Maui. I have never seen this prior to today, only have heard that on very clear days you can see our neighbor island to the north.

    I am doing a bit better today. Trying to prop my foot up when I can, its pretty swollen, and itches fiercely. Even my super duper benydryl gel doesnt touch the itch.

    The weather here has been very clear and breezy. We have the "Kona Winds" Blowing which in the winter bring us the heavy winter storms, during the summer it sweeps the VOG (I think it means Volcanic Originating Gases, all I know is that it stinks of sulphur)up thisa way as opposed to Kona way, and that also it could sweep a hurricane should there be any floating out there, into the islands. A strong southerly wind is what drove hurricane Iniki a cat 5 mega storm into Kauai'i in 1993. My first Hawaii experience was staying at a resort at Iniki's ground zero, the Embassey Vacation resort (timeshare) at Poipu. Very much like Kona but greener. Hot and glorious and somewhat flattish. The storm swept away the the resort that was under constrution like so many match sticks. I feel for the Floridians as the hurricanes sweep in.

    But this was my morning view yesterday as I stopped on the road ( oh foolish girl that I am to keep doing this but it is an addiction the digi cam that I can take all the snaps that I want and pay no development of film or for the film itself.

    I am really praying about the whole repair thing and going to the Glenns and all. My bench will be here in the am and off the barge. Then I can really get started. I can mess with things and learn on my own.

    The news is not all forlorn, we may be getting a bit of relief in the money dept. We will know in the next day or so. Its not a lot but its enough to get us out of hot water. Woody has an inheritance pending, we have known about this since July but know so few details that I hesitate even now to speak of it because its going to be a bit of a hastle and explaining how this came to be as it is a grind. Woody's sister has been dead for nearly a year and we are only now being notified, there are claimants involved in the estate and we are still not sure about the who, what, when, and hows. Diana and Woody were not very close, there was a 18 year age difference and two mothers involved.(Woodys mother was his fathers 2nd wife, then his father left the country with his new wife to join her family as a government employee in Panama where Woody was born, Lots of abandonment issues here) We dont have all of the facts. We think that part of the estate has been disbursed already so there may be legal headaches...

    Sometimes these things are not worth the money in the end, but we dont know. I know one thing I wont be rich and famous so nothing is going to change really, but maybe a bit of breathing room.

    I feel like life is going to change for me and I am waiting with eyes wide open to watch. I think God how are you going to get me out of this one? And He always does...
    We have requested a partial disbursement of some of the funds and if we get it then we can talk about me going to Ohio, we shall see how things go. I am trusting God that He will work this out.

    I have promised that I will go to the doctor about the ankle once Woody gets here tonight and we can talk about things. There is a clinic that said that they might take me, but if its broken and I have to go to Oahu then we have a big financial problem as I am uninsured. So praying that its not and we shall see.
