Hi there I realized I haven’t written on here in over a year. Most people probably think I have forgotten about this little place out here in cyberspace. I have had a lot happen since the last time I posted. Too much for one short post hehe Anyways thought I would upload a few photos. They are from Fantastic Caverns. Man I love that cave.
I was searching the internet for some of my favorite artists. And I really like this music that I found and I wanted to share it with everyone. Its good for relaxing and has a good message too. I also am including a story by the man. 
Enjoy

Once upon a time, there was a wise kupuna (elder),
who went to the sea to contemplate.
One day, while walking along the shore,
the kupuna looked down the beach,
and saw a gracefully dancing
human figure.
The kupuna wondered out loud,
“Who would so joyfully greet this day with hula?”
and began to walk faster to catch up.
Getting closer,
the kupuna saw that the dancer was a keiki (child),
who was not dancing at all.
The keiki was reaching down to the sand to pick up something,
and was very gently throwing it into the sea.
The kupuna called out to the keiki,
“Aloha! What are you doing?”
The keiki paused, looked up and replied,
“Throwing starfish into the sea.”
Surprised, the kupuna sputtered,
“I…I guess I should have asked,
WHY are you throwing starfish into the sea?”
The keiki smiled brightly, pointed upward and,
with exquisite simplicity, replied,
“The sun is up, the tide is going out.
If I don’t throw them in, they will die.”
“But, don’t you realize, ” asked the kupuna,
“that there are miles and miles of beach
and starfish all along it?
You can’t possibly make a difference!”
The keiki listened politely.
Then bent down, picked up another starfish,
threw it gently into the sea, just beyond the breaking waves,
and exuberantly declared,
“It made a difference for that one.”
So here it is yesterday I went to the park. I was having fun playing around with the camera and i took some photos. Hope you enjoy them
I received all this in a email and i wanted to spread the stupidity
Not only in America.. Its the same everywhere …
Only in America ……do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.
Only in America …….do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.
Only in America ….do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.
Only in America ……do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
Only in America ……do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.
Only in America ……do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.
