Back to Reality

Image
The return to the mainland...why is it an hour shorter, coming this way? ...something about head winds... 4 hrs and 40 minutes ...which I just love the 'brevity'...anyhoo, we are back...now, have to adjust to this time zone...just when we got adapted to Maui's... The mighty Padres are rolling along... a bunch of wins, and a rocking 16-1 win over the entire city of Seattle...guess the bats have awakened...as Jr is going wild...so, are the rest... I did the whammy on the Dubs , as they got beat in OT to the Grizzles, and their season is over...well, can hardly wait for the other part of their team to return...Thompson, and then we can get back at it...Curry carried this team...without him...now, the rest of the league starts their playoffs... I want but 2 things to occur...the Nets and LeBron Lakers to lose ...they'll probably meet in the finals...hate 'em both... The 23 sources have little to add to the day... the Hamas/Israel skirmish ...now, Egypt is involved...I...

Goodbye Maui

Image
I have the time after all...this week flew by...great time with the Snooki’s...in the most beautiful state of Hawaii...somebody has to come here...might as well be us... Yes, there is a truce in whatever that area is called...let’s just say Jerusalem....kind of...reports of street fighting lingering...hmmm...dangling participle?... The elder senior citizen, Snooki, is claiming the BEST album of the day...Perfect Island Nights by Bobby Caldwell...many many hits from it...although the Horse does not know any of them... Have you heard of the movement of the formation of the state of Greater Idaho?...if it did happen, Oregon would be the Willamette Valley...and Bend...the size of Rhode Island...this is the wishes of the forevers... The Horse has owned perhaps a dozen putters over the years...maybe more...none have worked... Last chance for the Dubs...a must win tonight...Memphis... Long haired freaky people?...gone... And now...back to the mainland...

The Last Day

Image
As we endure the last day in this paradise...wait, endure is totally wrong...enjoy, that is better...some things you just take for granted...the sights...the warmth...the breezes...the relaxing mood this place puts you in...oh my...the food... Mamas did not disappoint...have no idea what type of fish I had, but it was filled with crab and lobster and was outta this world good...Marsh had the ahi, and it was equal...man...pricey?   Yes... The drive to Paia was lengthy, but just fine...cuz Snooki was at the helm...a lil scary at times...he can’t see too good...he is a senior citizen now....super senior I think u call that...we made it... Today we will just take the sun in...bask in it...lather our skins...perhaps, go to Napili...the ocean water is actually warmer than the pool...hey, we marveled at a sea turtle frolicking about off shore about 15 feet...cool, huh...and fly back to the mainland tomorrow....boo... Damn it all, if I didn’t jinx the Dubs...sorry, guys...as LeBron hit a 3...

De-escalation

Image
We shall see the influence Prez B has on the leadership in Israel...the ‘rumor’ is that he was very forthright in telling them to STOP the fight with the Hamas...gone is the freedom they had with trump’s so called policy...as early as today, it may begin...fingers crossed... Here on the island, we did take the covered wagon all the way down to Wailea....beautiful area, which just has to mean boucoup bucks to live there...along the way, passed thru the way more affordable Kihei...strewn with many houses and strip malls...and a Mickey D’s....the time spent, via a long 30 mph zone on the hwy 31...did indeed resemble wooden wheels needed... Today is the Paia visit...across the island to the infamous Mama’s...cool, rad, groovy shopping...if the shops are still open...and the mahi-mahi that is simply scrumptious... The mighty Padres won on a wild pitch...and go for another sweep this am...we have the 2nd best record in all of MLB!.... Golden St at the LA LeBron Lake Show...gosh, I want they ...

The idea came up to travel the island...perhaps to Wailea and Kihei...we have a rig,so why not?...we have the time, we have the beer... The House Repubs want to squash further investigations into trumps capitol caper...oh my...as they forget,how they were running for their lives that day... Over in the mainland, or on the mainland...the mighty Padres keep winning...7-0 shutout of the Rockies...Yu was rocking...

From Over Here

I suppose this gets common place...taken for granted....boring?...naw...this weather on the island is extraordinary...well, to me...could I live here?...of course...as long as my SS check finds its way...you do know, I am on a fixed income.... Did not suffer any maladies yesterday, must report...enough bruises to last a month...already garnered...can be very dangerous in Maui... The mighty Padres swept the Cards!...first time since 2012...as the Rockies now invade the Gaslamp.... Laughed that LeBrons Lakers have to play in the 1 game thinger, after all....versus the Warriors...pulling for Golden St...hate LA... We bee bopped and scatted thru the streets of Lahaina yesterday....would say that 1/4th of the businesses have shuttered their doors...maybe a fifth....a newbie tho, the Paia Fish mkt, has opened....terrific!...we all had some form of fish, and mighty tasty, kids...a must do when in town... Without being too bombastic, but the sunsets are sublime...not that you don’t have fine o...

Today may be an excursion into Lahaina...can do whatever we want...anytime...cuz we are on hiatus...will give you a rundown of what’s still there...did see that Aloha Mixed Plate is back!...
