Beautiful Sunday

Awoke to the the hardest rain that we have experienced, so far. Sitting on our screened lanai (porch) with morning coffee, rain pouring down all around, but WARM - T-shirt and shorts warm, all we could do is smile and feel thankful.
Within an hour the clouds blew away and the tradewinds picked up to a nice 10-15 miles an hour, sun came out and the rest of the day has been perfect. Bright blue sky, clear air and temps. here in our shady haven probably not more than 78.
A friend from the island showed up with a dozen chicken eggs from her backyard coop, a large bag of bananas, some liliko'i and lemon grass for Tracy to plant. Plenty aloha all around!
Now we're heading toward dusk and the rain clouds are coming in and piling up against the mountain and waves of sprinkles to rain and back around again and again. Rain feels really good here.

What's in the garden?

Plants just outside the front door.
