Unconditional love
Great pets Guinea pigs make. Kaimi and Mele were my two
pets as a teenager. They were both Guinea pigs just like this one.
I've Been Tagged!
Love, love, love my friend!
You make me smile all the time.
Here's to seeing your beautiful face!
Aloha,
Moana:)
Snow Flakes on Flower Bud
I have never seen snowflakes up close
and in detail before.
They are all unique and different just
like us.
Old Man Thinking ...
Not an old man to me.
This photo evokes quite a bit of emotion and contemplation.
A gentle spirit and sweet person.

Such a spirited person who knows who she is

Your friend in Hawaii,

Satchie, our Lemon Springer
I had a B&W and a L&W AKC English Springer Spaniel
which I used to show.
They were both females. This little guy is rare.
He is a lemon ESP.
Beautiful and rare!
Aloha,
Moana:)

~Time on the Big Apple~
A moment captured in time.
This new year is significant as The United States of America
seeks change with our new President, Barack Obama.
A special reminder of the outgoing of the old
and the incoming of the new.
Happy New Year America and the world!

Bye Bye 2008 -> Welcome 2009 :o))))) !!!!.

What an amazing shot and title.
Fantastic.

How rare to have seen this on www.taggalaxy.de
when I searched for my name. "Moana."
This is a rare poster/photo from the original Moana Hotel
located in Waikiki, O`ahu. I bought my copy when Liberty
House closed several years ago.
There was only 1 copy available and I purchased it.
It makes me think of my favorite saying which I created.

Aloha from Hawaii,

~Reaching~
Underneath the depth of dof and bokeh
comes forth this beautiful creation by Mother Nature.
It is fragile, delicate, and yet hearty which lends
strength as it emerges into the light.
Mesmerizing,
Moana :)
Duke's Lagoon Hawaii
In Hawaii, it is well known that when a child is born,
the name you give that child has, "Mana" or "Power,"
that follows that child until he/she passes away.
You actually become your name.
Being named, "MOANA" after the, "Hawaiian Ocean" bears true.
I love the ocean, any form of water. If I could breathe
water instead of air, I would.
Aloha,
Moana :)
...
This past week we had a storm in Hawaii which
brought snow to Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa on
the Big Island of Hawaii.
There is no comparison to a beautiful winter scene
such as this. This is a dream to me.
Aloha,
Moana :)
