Lucky we live Hawaii!
That’s a pretty common phrase around here. Sometimes it drips with sarcasm, in reference to, say, the cost of living or the long wait to get items shipped to our little speck in the middle of the Pacific. It’s more often said said with a warm heart while enjoying the scenery, over-indulging in a local delicacy or marveling at some other pleasure unique to our islands.
Sunset on the Beach is one of those pleasures, and it was in my neighborhood this past weekend. Local food and craft booths, entertainment, even a movie at sunset. It’s a “free” festival, though it comes at a price. It’s paid for partly with taxpayer dollars, though corporate sponsorship may put an end to that soon. And the homeless who usually live there were moved into a tight little group not quite out of sight to festival goers (they’ll probably already be back in their preferred spots by now.)
Still! Lucky we live Hawaii!
Progress: Um, not much. Guess I needed a few days off. I haven’t lost my focus, though, and will be back on track soon.
