Pink Saturday, Sunsets and Blackout and Freebies

Happy Pink Saturday and Welcome new followers! And everyone :)

Strange goings on in Southern California...
First, there was RAIN on Labor Day :O
Followed by a week of 100 degree temperatures and 90 degree humidity!
It did make for some lovely warm Summer evenings
and for beautiful sunsets like this:







Oh yes, and then the Blackout!



I felt so cut off from the rest of the world...the radio in my car didn't work because the radio stations didn't have power...my cell phone didn't work even though it's WiFi...our phones are on electric chargers, and because they were out of juice we couldn't use those...so we really had no idea as to the extent of the outage or when it would be fixed...



We still can't use water from the faucet without boilng it for one minute.

Here's a couple of images to get you started on your Halloween crafting:

Have a great weekend, and visit Pink Saturday to view some lovely pinkness.

Postcards from Hawaii

Well. Southern California has had subpar weather for summer so far.
Gray gloomy mornings.
A little too cool to stay outside after 7 p.m.
without a sweater or light jacket.
This won't do.

I want summer! I want warm summer nights!

I know a place where it's always summer!


I don't surf, but if I did, I'd want to have one of these pretty surfboards handpainted by North Oahu artist Ron Artis.

Every day when we returned to our room
there was new towel origami waiting for us!

We had a great time just kicking it on the Big Island.




Love, love, love tiki torches!!

And sunsets!

And tropical drinks!
Aloha!
