Why We Drive the North Shore of Maui - August 2013

Lynn and I found this gallery five years ago when we were first married and honeymooned in Maui. We purchased several photographs and made plans to return the next time we had a chance. This year, we found several more photos as well as two copper etchings that are amazing.

The drive is incredible and at times nerve racking. There are plenty of places where it is one lane and cliff face, so it takes a while to get to the gallery.

If you go to Maui, make the drive to the Kaukini Gallery http://www.kaukinigallery.com/

Ocean Distillery - What they make vodka out of sugar cane??? Maui August 2013

While we in Maui, we went to the Surfing Goat Dairy. On our way, we passed a distillery. So, on the way back down the mountain, we stopped to investigate. Imagine our surprise to find out the the Ocean Distillery makes vodka from sugar cane. Oh, and sea water from 2000 feet down. A few photos from the Distillery grounds. We arrived too late to take the tour. If you are interested, check out Ocean Vodka's site http://oceanvodka.com/

Reagan Library - Air Force One Oct 2013

At the Reagan Library there is the old 707 that served as Air Force One. The display is huge, but they do not allow pictures of the interior. They also prevent personal photos of the entrance because the staff photographer takes an official photo that you have to pay for (like Disneyland). I found this disappointing and decided not to participate.

At any rate, it was interesting exhibit and I was surprised at the lack of comfort. Sadly, I can't show you what I mean.
