This is as...

close as I'll get this year to a Christmas card to all.

Merry Christmas!

If you suffer from...

 Mysophobia (fear of dirt/mud) don't try to slip/slide to Alaka'i Swamp. 

However if you can handle the primordial ooze, it's worth the effort. See the photos! 

I scored a rare day when Mother Nature didn't moisturize the rain forest. This doesn't happen often. 

The fickle God of weather is making up for it today. Rain, wind and clouds. Still beats White Death. 

Good day to launder the gunk off of my clothes. Kapaa sports a 24 hour laundromat. This ought to be an interesting experience.  

Aloha Y'all,

PS. Those are authentic swamp flowers. 

I mean absolutely no disrespect to...

my many Christian friends, (and May God Bless all of you) but I have to blog this.

What would Jesus think of Rosa's holiday spirit?

I'm not sure if weapons are the gift that keeps on giving.

Here's to a safe Christmas for all.
