Bruce et al



The Maui version of the Christmas Cactus was blooming to excess this morning. Gaugin had it right with his vision of oversize plants in the tropics, these flowers range from six inches to over a foot each. Yes, I realize that it isn't Christmas; but on Maui they never get things quite right anyway.

As a way of not thinking about the killer kind of shark, I concentrate on looking for specific other creatures while I swim. Today I was thinking, Manta Ray, Manta Ray, Manta Ray... And that is just what appeared on the home stretch. Just a quick swim-by way down below, but a Manta Ray nonetheless.

Bruce was home alone today. I guess things didn't work out with the house guest (click HERE for a very short video).
