Winter Solstice

"Na Anela" by Dietric Varez 2002

We're keeping it simple this year for the holidays. 20 months later from the life-changing events of Kilauea's lava eruption that altered the lives of so many Puna residents and those we love in Leilani Estates, frankly we are still recovering. 2018 was a hard year, and 2019 was spent accomplishing a lot of necessary and beautiful construction of our new home. We have no particular plans for 2020 other than to limit the news we consume and focus on our respective artistic endeavors.

As both our interests include history, cultural anthropology and archaeology our reflections at this time of year include the ideas embraced by many world cultures long before the birth of Jesus.

We're not sending out cards or even a year-end email; we figured that anyone interested in our lives would take an occasional peek at our blog which has been up-and-running for over seven years now. Here is our "card" -- a lovely art piece by Dietric Varez, a local Volcano, Hawaii artist who died on Lunel's birthday last year. (Na Anela is the next street north from ours, and means the angels). Take care, enjoy life, and may the angels be with you!
