"Human communication, 'as the saying goes, is a clash of symbols' it covers a multitude of signs. But it is more than media and messages, information and persuasion; it also meets a deeper need and serves a higher purpose. Whether clear or garbled, tumultous or silent, deliberate or fatally inadvertent, communication is the ground of meeting and the foundation of community. It is, in short, the essential human connection."
There is something to be said for a “laid back” lifestyle……
You have that down pat…

great pictures!
hope to see you on my blog soon. *hugs*
Don’t you wish you could jump right into the photos…and be sunning yourself in the tropics…right now?
Yes…I wasn’t even near the sea since 2006. so water attracts me a lot.
As I get older, the draw for me grows since I grew up near the ocean as a child. Watching the waves roll up on the shore is therapeutic…so serene. Even when they thunder in, slamming against the sand…I’m awestruck.

hugs for the mention…
Wow! Thanks for the mention.
Wonderful shot … and humorous too.
Did you find the dog walker funny? I did. I had to do a couple of doubletakes. Not a bad job to have walking down Waikiki Beach…basking in the warmth of the sun…and the cool trade winds blowing…
…aaahhh…
I thrive on…laughter!

Thanks!
Hugs for sharing my post!
Wonderful photos capturing a life we yearn for every day.
I know. Life is so laid back. The sun almost always shines. Days, and nights, are casual. Getting together with friends and family is relatively easy. We organized an evening picnic at the beach with a morning’s notice. Folks came after work, picking food up on the way. Yummy potluck!
…fun memories, for sure…
I’d be content with once or twice a week…a kind of mini vacation year round.

Thank you!
it looks wonderful
My daughter and I reminisce every day about our vacation…and time with family. We’re already talking about returning…
…not sure when though…
and i hear that everyone leaves their shoes outside all doors (including stores) and goes barefoot. is that still true? I would love that. I am SO anti-shoes!
Yes, it is customary to remove one’s shoes when visiting someone’s home. I think the custom is of Japanese origin. They were early immigrants to the Hawaiian islands. It’s not necessary to do so at stores, however. That might be a nightmare keeping track of everyone’s shoes.
…it is lovely wearing flip flops…or going barefoot…all the time.
wow….this is great Hugmamma, I hope to visit Hawaii someday
I hope you do. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed…
…at least I hope not…
