Welcome Project Blue! For those of you who are new, go out with your camera and find blue…post it on your blog and link back to me here so others can follow along! I am looking forward to sharing the blue in my world with each of you!

This subject is a little beat up and old…but I am loving it! I snapped this at dinner tonight as we left and noticed this blue beauty parked next to my car. I told you all I wouldn’t take a picture until today and decide the color…

Make sure you sign the list below if you participate!

My iTunes: Beautiful Mystery by Telecast

Hi everyone…I promised you a Hawaiian sunrise so here it is…

In the wee hours of the morning before we left Maui, we were picked up at 2:05 am at our hotel. We were driven up to the top of a volcano to watch the sunrise. After the sun was up were rode bikes down to the bottom. It was amazing.

When the sun began to show itself…I was captivated by the line in the horizon. The beautiful blues, oranges and yellows. Just majestic. If you click the image you can see the clouds…as it got brighter you could see the clouds spilling into the crater. You can see it in the image below. Beautiful.

The shot below is of me with the crater behind me. I am dressed in my all weather gear they provided to me to ride the bike in freezing temperatures. As the elevation dropped, the temperatures rose and the layers were peeled off one at a time! It was a blast and I recommend that if you go to Maui…please do this bike trip!

Everyone get ready….my new Project starts tomorrrow! I haven’t even decided on a color yet!
Have a good weekend everyone!

Me and the Crater (and the Sun…)

Breathtaking.

There is no other word to describe a Hawaiian sunset. John and I have traveled all over the world and I just have never seen anything to rival it. Tracey and I made a point to see sunrises and sunsets while we were there and I am so glad we did. We did comment about the sunset that night being incredibly long…it took over an hour for the sun to completely set. It was worth every second we sat there. The image below is when I was walking on the beach that same night…I always look up but at that moment…I looked behind me. Cool shot I think.

Tomorrow? The last sunrise I saw on my trip. Hope you all are doing well!
