I am drawn to this photo to look, to linger, and to contemplate. Silently. #sea #clouds #beach © Eskildoodle 2022

Hawaiian Kindness
While practicing Hawaiian language lessons on Duolingo, I ran across this phrase which translates into: “Let’s be kind.” If any time ever called for kindness, it is now, and I just had to make this poster. Mahalo! Photo taken of rainbow over Lahina on Maui in 2015. #kindness #rainbow #lahaina #maui © Eskildoodle 2022
Happy Honu Home
In barely less time than it would take a Tahitian honu to swim to the US, we finally got our new end table. Ordered months ago, it arrived at last to grace our home with the spirt of the creature that in the past has guided Marquesan fisherman in the South Pacific safely home throughContinue reading “Happy Honu Home”
Purple Pause
I had to stop for a moment during our morning walk to admire this bush on the edge of the forest. I learned later that it is aptly named the beautyberry bush, and it is one beauty that I can pause to admire without offending my wife. #beautybush

The photo insert shows our storm refuge and the rest of the photo shows the tree remnants of the storm on our yard. The branches had beenContinue reading “Remembering Irma”
The Company You Keep
It was fun watching the Moon duck in and out of the clouds in the western sky while the Sun rose in the east recently. The football-shaped Moon was clearly marked with dark lava flows across its brilliant face as it headed towards last quarter. Without the white clouds, however, the auto exposure of theContinue reading “The Company You Keep”
Dark Sky
Another Florida flyby thunderstorm. Wind, lightning, thunder, brief heavy rain, and then it is gone and the air is cool and moist. #thunderstorm #lightning #wind #rain
Turkey Lurking
The woodland turkeys took a temporary turn towards civilization again. They show up now and then, little bothered by passers by. The matriarch keeps a wary eye out anyway while two of her clan are in the bushes on the left, scratching out breakfast. #wildturkey
