What a great graphic, Lori! Cute poem, too! (Anybody ready for Fall - and autumn leaves, yet?) *grin*
That’s the BEACH! hahaha!
Mr. Kabong and I went snorkling there in 1991. Because of the riptide, we emerged from the water over a mile from where our car was parked! EEEK! No WONDER there weren’t any locals swimming there! hahaha
I saw a production of South Pacific on that VERY Island!
Real Polynesians played the Polynesians.

Surf’s Up, Dudedess! Grab your board!
Made some short stops at Pearl Harbor in my Navy Daze. Also lived down on the Big Island - Kailua-Kona. We’re planning a trip next year to The Big Island.
I am watching “Aida” with Pavarotti and the San Francisco Opera.
It is breathtaking.
Hey Doc. Hope your injury is starting to heal.
I did my first DIVE on Kauai.
Mr Kabong and I renewed our vows 30 ft under water.
I LOVE Kailua Kona.
Just spent a week there in July. I have a (conservative) friend there! :-)
KEWL!!! Wonder if MrsD would like to renew our vows (47)like you did?!? That’s the first time I’ve heard of that being done...Congratulations!
We touched regulators for a Kiss.
I have it on videotape.
Did I mention that this was the San Francisco Opera?
The Ballet Scene during the Triumphal March has left no doubt.
Eek.
Just before our church service began, I overheard a young man behind me talking with his mother. They were reading an announcement in the bulletin about a challenge to read one chapter of Proverbs each day for the months of July and August. He asked his mom, What will we do with chapter 31 in August since there are only 30 days? She said she thought there were 31 days in August. He responded, No, there are only 30.
When it was time in the service to greet each other, I turned back toward him and said hello. Then I added, August does have 31 days. He insisted, No, it doesnt. There cant be 2 months in a row with 31 days. The singing started, so I just smiled.
This brief encounter made me think about our need to develop a teachable spirit, seeking wisdom beyond our own. In Proverbs 3, the attitude the father recommends to the son is one of humility: Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord (v.7). In chapter 2, he says, Incline your ear to wisdom . . . ; search for her as for hidden treasures (vv.2,4).
Knowing whether August has 30 or 31 days doesnt matter much, but having a teachable spirit does. It will help us gain wisdom from God and others. Reading a chapter from Proverbs each day next month may give us a start.
