Dracena Fragrans is one of the loveliest scents I’ve ever smelled. It blooms in the evening and lasts all night.

Not sure how many Icelandic Chickens enjoy banana plants, but mine sure do.

Pretty little pond. Perfect spot to cool off before the hike back up the mountain.

Beautiful place for a walk, along the northwest coast of Hawaii island. Maui is visible across the channel and its whale season We saw many.

I’m just going to post happy stuff.

This is Gaela (14) and Pippa (2) her granddaughter. Aren’t they adorable together.

My old girl Gaela says hi.
Gaela is a 14 year old Icelandic Sheepdog on her new cooling matt. I think she likes it out on the lanai.

Pretty happy with how these sourdough english muffins came out. Also still really enjoying the @kingarthurbaking.bsky.social little app. I used my cast iron skillet on the cooktop to make them.

Where oh where have my sheepies gone? Oh where oh where can they be?

Looking across the pasture. The fruit stand is visible by the road to the left. The sheep are by the compost pile, their favorite spot. Looking across the pasture.

They clean up all left over fruit and love it.

My nearly blind and deaf 14 year old Gaela Girl spotted some goats!

#dogsofbluesky #dogsky #goats #morningwalk #hawaii
Gaela was lagging behind everyone because she is slowing down at 14. I turned back to see her pointed at a mama and baby goat. She has large cataracts so I think that was smell. A wild mama goat with a black and white spotted baby on the edge of the ditch in our pasture.

I love this shot of Pippa and Gaela, granddaughter and grandma. Pippa was trying to sneakily steal the ball but grandma’s not having it.

Puppy is a two year old Icelandic Sheepdog next to Gaela her Grandmother who is 14. They are staring at each other over a tennis ball next to a pond.
