Hawaii - Day 4

December 29, 2009

I'm going to be selfish and do Day 4 in two separate entries. One with kids and one without! For my Christmas/birthday present Michael booked a photo tour for me. I love to take pictures and have wanted to learn how to better use my camera. Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa, Auntie Brandie and Uncle Sean I was able to send the kids away with them and focus on my pictures. I got to spend the entire day with two professional photographers, Ken and Mary Goodrich (www.hawaiiphotoretreat.com). I learned so much and had a fabulous time taking hundreds of pictures. A little north of Hilo are the Hawai'i Tropical Botanical Gardens where these pictures were taken.

Jessica, you are a gifted photographer. Those pictures are gorgeous. Seeing them took me back to my walk through the Gardens. I could almost smell the flora and feel the moisture. Thanks. Dottie

Fantastic photos. Boy, that Hawaiian weather looks great -- especially from under three feet of snow!

Freezin' in the East.
