This morning’s storm burst. I have never seen anything like this before. In a lull at the moment, but I think that this Kona Storm has more to bring.
⛈ The rain still falls. The wind still blows. Thunder, lightening. Yesterday evening’s brief reprieve brought beautifully clear skies.

Sunday afternoon
Dozing -
As the rain falls relentlessly outside.
Now the storm is hitting.
There is a big storm crossing the island right now, I believe the rest do the State as well.
Last night lightening was flashing all around us. No thunder or rain. This morning the air felt heavy, waiting to break with something. Since mid-morning the rain has been falling, at times heavily. Lightening and thunder have been right above us. Thunder shaking the house. Lightening taking the electricity out briefly.
We’ll see what the rest of the day has install for us.
I’m very grateful this morning for MarsEdit, enabling to easily edit multiple links in blog posts, following some changes elsewhere. Thank you @danielpunkass
I haven’t watched any games in this Football World Cup. If England had got to the semifinals, I might have done. Having said that, I see now that Argentina have “won”. I say that as I don’t see how a tournament can be won my a handful of shots at the goal at the end of a game. How about just saying, “well done both teams. You have shown your excellence in the game. This year it is a draw.”?
Having said all of that, any tournament in any sport is just a construct made up of limitations (time, etc) and quite probably outside interests as well - tennis has its tie break rules, golf has its sudden death, etc.
I just like how a cricket game can be played for five days and the result can still be a draw. Surely the joy is in the playing, and the watching the skill of the players?

We’ve just driven home from a Christmas party. Are my eyes aging or are car lights brighter? I don’t enjoy driving at night these days (though new glasses have made it more comfortable).
Aircraft lights are bright. We live in flight path of airplanes coming to Maui. Not at under carriage down, final descent, but just as they are arriving over the island. At night they come in with lights on, and they are noticeable from a long way off.
😌 Relaxing alone at home.

I went to my men’s group for the first time for a while last night. The break was for a number of reasons, some of which I am not completely sure of myself yet, but it was good to be back.
Looking outside while waiting for my morning coffee to brew. The silhouettes of the trees become sharper in the growing light of dawn.
