PF: Cows & Waipio Valley

I mentioned a bit ago that I went to Hawaii with my mom about 4 years ago.  This was my favorite day of the whole trip and one of my most favorite memories of my mom.  It was right before she was diagnosed with cancer.  It was a fun, carefree day.  I saw her in a light that I never had before.  It seemed like she was a kid again.  Good times.  Good times.

We spent the day with her friends, Laenette and Lakme.  Lakme showed us around her ranch and then we headed out to Waipio Valley where Laenette and her family have a little taro patch.

Posing in front of Laenette’s home. I was pretty impressed. They run their home completely off of solar power. Pretty sweet. (L-R Laenette, Lakme, Lakme’s niece, my mom, my tutu)
