Castles in the Sand

Doug's birthday was this past weekend and everything else (this blog included) fell by the wayside.

This morning I was appreciating the staggering beauty of South Maui's resorts. Lush flowering landscapes and huge waterfalls seem out of place here in the desert of Wailea except they are the rule rather than the exception. Fifteen year old buildings are sparkling and fresh as if they were built last week, and nearly priceless art sits out on public display. What a great place to live.
