Absolutely!  Crystal clear skies, NO rain … I’m running around with sprinklers as Nature seems to have forgotten our 150″ of rain per year rule … gorgeous sunsets … and warm, warm, warm … floating around in the pool … LOVE September on the north shore!!! 

Pool was 83 degrees yesterday … summer’s a’coming … chickens are giving us fabulous organic eggs … just planted 6 different varieties of cherry tomatoes in the herb garden … LOVE this time of the year in Huelo!

Summer’s on the way … and you can feel it in the air … here comes our beautiful summer weather pattern … gentle rain at night … gorgeous days!!!

It’s been a wild and windy week in Huelo … I think we’ve been spoiled for the last few months of blue (officially our “wet” season) … so nature is now catching up with us!!!  But on the up side, 20 minutes down the road we’re finding our patches of blue, as usual … and Kai, (now fourteen, would you believe) has been catching some GREAT boogie boarding waves in Paia Bay!

Ages! such a busy, beautiful and idyllic Hawaiian north shore summer it’s been! … Can’t believe the end of the year is coming so fast … and yes, the whales are again on their way. Our orchard has developed into a whole new “food forest”, constantly expanding … new chickens … lime & lemon trees laden with fruit … bunches of bananas in abundant supply … much to be grateful for in 2010, despite the economic challenges faced by us all in our small & eclectic community.
