Relaxing on our lanai I look up towards Waimea. The wind is blowing through the palm trees as the sunlight dances with golden light on the palm fronds in the foreground. Up by Waimea and the Kohala mountain the clouds are edging their way over the hill enclosing Waimea with a cool dampness at about 3000 feet elevation. The clouds come over the hill from the Hamakua coast on the other side of the island. The coolness of Waimea beckons as the weather report for Waikoloa Beach calls for a humid high of 89F degrees. We have business down south in Kona today. Kona is almost always hotter and is always more humid than Waikoloa. I think we will take the high road to Kona, the Mamalahoa Hwy. The drive is beautiful and much cooler. The vistas look out over the land and down to the ocean which beckons you to get in and swim with the honu; sea turtles.

Looks like my wife is ready to go. Have an amazing day.

Aloha,

James Christopher
