< Pink Franjipani (Plumeria)There is an electrical outlet conveniently located a couple of feet behind the table I'm sitting at. The table is located just behind the railing of a lanai. The lanai is at the front of the cottage we have rented in Maui, guarded by an enormous Frangipani tree, to the right of a stand of clumping bamboo. The perfume of the pink flowers drifts in through the open windows, every night, as we fall asleep to the cradle song of waves crashing on the beach, and trade winds combing through the leaves of coconut palms. Heaven!
Our cottage is a few miles down the road from the town of Paia. Paia's main strip is an eclectic mixture of brightly painted wooden structures housing arts and crafts galleries, surfer shops, Hawaiian clothing outlets, and restaurants, like Charlie's, owned by Willie Nelson.
Dinner with Jerry
Our friend Jerry R., aka FatCat, took us to dinner at a place called the Pa'ia Fish Market. The food was wonderful, and Jerry, who has obviously discovered the secret to a long and happy life, was even cooler than he seems in the forums. Thanks Jerry! We hope we see you again soon.
