taken in Porto Portugal on my iPhone 8+. I was on a three-month solo journey to deal with some serious grief having lost my best friend of 40 years. When I saw this door and the birds I knew Patti would have loved it. titled: "Patti's Birds".  I went back a month later and the birds had all fallen off and were lying on the ground. I brought one home.

Another beautiful sunset on the North Shore. This is near Sharks Cove which is a great place to snorkel in the summer. The winter months bring massive waves, that are best viewed from the shore for a novice waterman like myself.

Lili’uokalani Botanical gardens are tucked away, not far from central Honolulu. It’s a beautiful area that sees little foot traffic and is underutilized.  There had been heavy rains recently, so I thought I’d check on the falls. I was not disappointed.

Early evening, sunset flight up the coast. Still on the climb out from BUR. Around 10,000ft. Those are the Channel Islands off the Ventura, California Coast. Snapped through the double plexi - the sunset swam with little reflecting satellites around the setting sun.
