Grant Jones:
Molokai is one island that most folks never get to; it certainly took me long enough to get around to it...

Great pictures, Molokai is one island I never got to. Maybe some year....

UpNorthLurkin:
I came home to snow on the ground myself.

Spring's a-comin'!

boberin:
I've made a lot of my own luck; growing up in North Philly with essentially nothing, I got myself educated, and currently make a very good living. A big part of that was going into the military and the programs that offers.

I reckon that I could be considered a knowledgable guide to Hawaii, having been bopping around on those islands for decades now. I'm glad that you liked the pictures.

JR:
I toured one of the coffee plantations in 2001.

Bunny:
I like to learn about all kinds of places and things, and figure a lot of other folks do too. I'm glad you (et al) appreciate it.

Also, you are quite correct...I'd like to spend more time on Moloka'i someday.

Cassandra:
Before this trip, I'd only ever stopped on Moloka'i for fuel once back in the early 80s, and airports don't really count.

As for the weather here in the Mid-Atlantic States, it'll get better in a few weeks. Oh, and you are most welcome for the photos.

Hawkeye®:
Having a good time is what it's all about. Don't feel too bad about slaving away in cold, boring NJ; I'm back to "the grind" now myself.

Ms RightWing:
It is wonderful in Hawaii, which is why I love it there. The temperature peaked at around 80º one day, and I think it got all the way down to 65º one night.

Beerme:
Yes, it's very beautiful indeed!

I really have got to go there!Beautiful!

I looks wonderful but I waited all winter for a snow storm and we finally got it so I am staying here. Nyah. Now on Monday it is going to be 50 and slush up to your ***, so by then I will be ready.

Aloha and smooth sailing

/sarcasm="ON"
while I was slaving away here in cold, boring NJ. Be that way... see if I care! I'd post more often, but I like to keep you in suspense. (Jack asks: Is he or isn't he reading these things?)
/sarcasm="OFF"

(:D) Best regards as always...

PS-- I don't think I missed that many.

I've never been to Moloka'i - it looks lovely. I'm jealous.

It's cold and cloudy here in Maryland. I'd give anywhere to be somewhere where the sun is shining. Thanks for the lovely photos.

Wonderful pictures and narrative, Jack. I'm glad that you had a chance to explore a place you hadn't been to before. I know what a curious and adventurous traveler you are. ;-)
I'm sure you'll be a Moloka'i "regular" on future trips to "Paradise."

Did you take the tour of the coffee plantation??? A Mocha Mamas sounds good right about now...

Oh, and one reason for the seeming lack of posts is the sign in proceedure. I'll be lots of folks are reading but few have the patience for the login!

2008-02-27T09:33:00.000-05:00

You are one lucky man indeed? One of these years I'll have to tag along. I'm sure that more fun can be had with a knowledgable guide!
Some wonderful shots and I'm certain that the scene itself os some 1000 times more impressive than the photos!

So beautiful! We are about to get hit yet again with an "Alberta Clipper", bringing with it another half foot of snow! The photos make me pine for spring/summer! And, I'd post more often if I could remember how to log into this blogger deal! (Coming up on 58 yrs old ya know!! ;o) )
