I get up at 4am on work day. I’m up early on days off. Putting batteries in the Christmas decorations. Already cooked bacon and rewired the Christmas tree.


We’ve had the same tree for a couple of years can’t get a real teee in Kona, it wound dried out in 2 weeks. We had a big tree when we lived in Waimea it would last the whole season.


My highest earning years were the 2 before the pandemic. It’s been a downhill slide since then. Retirement looms.

Our Whirlpool over stove Microwave died a few weeks ago. The repair guy said it’s the magnetron, a couple of hundred to repair. He said just wait till Black Friday and get a new one. We got the exact same model for $199 on a cyber Monday sale. It will fit the same mounts


I did this event when I had Canoes cafe. It used to be Christmas at Kona Village. It was a blast

My wife pointed this out. She’s from North Dakota. The rest of her family that stayed there will never admit it’s cold.

Surfer pondering the waves. Shall I ???


We went for a Sunday morning walk at Hualalai. Surf is up on the west side.


Ok. Yesterday was an aberration. VOG is back thick

I equate a nice Beaujolais with the holidays. This will warrant a trip to West Side wines in Kona.
