Hawaiian Who Dat!!

Wasn't I just talking about Maui yesterday?  Got this a few minutes ago from a friend of mine out there:

See.  We're everywhere.  Much mahaloz, baby!

Dining on the road to Hana

On the road to Hana in Maui, you will see many beautiful things.

And if you have any sense, you will stop here for some B.B.Q.

          
There's only one or two tables and if they're full you'll have to sit on your car and eat your food.  But that's fine because that mahi-mahi will still taste damn good.

                          
Aloha!      

Maui Kayaks

If you want to go kayaking in Maui with a broken knee, I highly recommend Maui Kayaks.  As you know, when I was there in October I still couldn't walk, but I don't need to walk to paddle a kayak or go snorkeling, do I?

That's K, kayak guide extraordinaire, the man who made it all possible.  I call him K not to protect his identity, but because I don't know how to spell his name.  Getting into the water was easy enough, I crutched on down the beach to the kayak and was pulled out to sea.  K ran the crutches back up to the van.

I very much appreciated K's skill at doing his job successfully while wearing very little clothing.

I also appreciated his skill at finding cool shit for us to look at.  He had lots of info to share about the fish and the turtles and the local area, most of which I forgot once we returned to shore.

   Our small group paddled around all day, anchoring and jumping out to snorkel now and then.  On the way back, what was most likely someone's lost pet bird landed on my kayak.  Twice.

        

                                
Once we did get back to shore, we ran into the issue of how to get me back up the beach as quickly and comfortably as possible.  At first, I tried to lean on K and hop up the beach.  That didn't last long.

K: "You know, I could carry you."

Me: "You don't mind?"

K: "Do YOU mind?"

You might to scroll back up here and remind yourself what K looks like.

Did I mind?  Aaahh, no.  Not a bit.

Lunch was waiting for us in the van, along with my crutches.  A good time was had by all.  Mahalo, K!

Happy Halloween

I was in Maui for Halloween.  Still hopping around on crutches.  Broke out a costume I've used before.  Miss Behaving.  Didn't want to brave the Lahaina madness on crutches, not a good idea.  Found a friendly nurse out and about in Kihei...

Saw this beautiful boy in Maui last month, reading what appears to be a very bad book.  The title was "Virginity".  Seriously.  Ironic, though.  That's the LAST word that came to my mind when I saw him.

Shadow Shot Sunday

A broken knee and crutches didn't stop me from having a good time on a boat in Maui.  Didn't even slow me down.

Aloha!

I was talking to my father today.  He just got to Maui last night with Vernice.  They're going to be there for two weeks.  I was saying how much I missed them.

Papa Ron: "So come to Maui."

Me: "I'm broke!"

Papa Ron: "I'll buy you a ticket."

Me: "Seriously?"

Papa Ron: "Yes! Take my credit number, go online, and buy yourself a fuckin' ticket!"

Me: "How much is too much to spend?"

Papa Ron: "Whatever it takes!"

Me: "Seriously?"

Papa Ron: "Don't go nuts."

I leave Wednesday morning.  I'm staying until November first.  Aloha!
