Isle of Inspiration

It's amazing to me sometimes that such natural beauty still exists! I feel so lucky in my life to have spent my days in such beautiful places. To have grown up in one of the most competition rich cities full of culture and inspiration, to have been able to travel to some of the most astounding landscapes and now to have my abode in one of the worlds most beautiful islands.  In a modern world so polluted with greed, man-made toxins and structures, to me I find peace and inspiration amongst nature, its silence, its colors and its beauty.

MAY DAY!!

This May Day was busy indeed and it was celebrated by a morning wedding on the north shore, a family portrait, a KORE event, making leis at the Kauai Museum and an afternoon of finding shells along the beach!  Lucky we live Hawaii!!

Earth Day EVERYDAY!

Every Earth Day, we celebrate our home with a hike and a beach clean up. As my family and I stroll thru this north shore valley on our hike we were blown away by all the Nene Geese hanging by all the taro fields. They didn't seem at all phased by us, actually it seemed as though they were checking US out!

Good fun, great hike, with lots of birds and plants to explore....of course my little scientists had their field guides and told us exactly what everything was!

Birdie Friend

Since my daughter was a wee-one barely holding herself up in her kiddie pool, birds would come to the edge of her little pool as she played and sit on the pools edge. As she began talking she'd call them "birdie friends". Mynah birds and thrushes would watch her as she played. This image was captured one summer day in eastern Long Island, NY at one of my kids favorite parks. Of all the things to do in NY this is by far my kids favorite place. I enjoy the fact that my kids find energy and comfort in nature!
