Lanui Paina (Holiday/Anniversary Tree)
Happy Anniversary to US!!
A year ago, we planted a Norfolk pine tree that was about 2' tall. Our container of household goods did not arrive for about 8 weeks, so it was our Christmas tree (minus decorations.) We also planted it to honor Phil's mom, Margaret. Today 12/12 marks the one year anniversary of our arrival in Puna.
This past year this little tree has grown 300% -- it now stands over 6' tall. Phil bought some outside decorations, and while we were decorating it, yesterday, the sun was bright and warm.
THE KNEE??? Oh yeah; I just got back from surgery, and here I am functioning (pretty much), great drugs too. Surgery went well, the people were SO FANTASTIC. The sun is out for our one year anniversary today, the sky is a beautiful bright blue, clouds are amazing, and temperature is 74 in the shade. So I think I will amble out to our new deck and read in the sun, then have a nap.
MAHALO to all you who have called, emailed or written. Ho'omaika'i - expressing gratitude!
