Thankful Thursday. Enjoying an art exhibit with my mom at the Wailoa Center in Hilo. This exquisite piece is an interpretation of Koa leaves in graphite and gold. #koa #art #timeless

I never noticed this trig beacon before. Maybe it was covered in sand, like the newly dredged channel at Pohoiki. #poundingpavement #pohoiki #misguided #mistake #surveymarker #usgs

Fabulous Friday. In the garden. This is what happens when you put down mulch and then it rains ... and rains. #mushrooms

Big Island Candies. A big open space with all good things - like cookies, candies, chocolate. Not a ballroom ... but oh so much better. #cookies

How is it even possible that the current occupant of the People's House - iconic as an American symbol - can take a backhoe and demolish part of that house without approval or permit. How? #disgrace

Marie Antoinette said, "Let them eat cake." With his AI video Trump metaphorically told Americans to "Eat shit". If past is prologue, well we know what happened to Marie Antoinette. #letthemeat #resist

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

There are 340 MILLION OF US.

Don’t you dare get despondent.

STAND UP.

And go GET YOUR COUNTRY BACK.

Please.

Let us not cower. This is all absolutely ridiculous.

Come on now.
