A taste of Maui 10/2009

Tom & Jo kicked back in Kahana area, Maui.
Enjoyed snorkeling, swimming, Haleakala, the 10,023 ft Mtn called
"House of the Sun", 'our' pool, exploreing and tracking down great meals
out & a few in our kitchen. Throw in reading & napping which added up to
the laziest Hawaiian trip ever. We offer you a few pix.

Maui no ka Oi !
Beautiful pictures... all the more savory when viewed on a cold, dark, wet Northwest day.
