Saw this very large “trail” in the sky this morning, can imagine a giant comet passing by.
Also, the Cold Moon pic taken after I swam under its glow.

Post Halloween mood.
She was SO excited, and got over stimulated, by watching the kids walk past our cottage last night and she’s catching some early Z’s at 0729 now.

Grabbed this off Insta, someone here in Hawaii posted this, this is where you can find me 4x/week @ 520am (moon or no moon) for my healing morning swim with other early risers!
The left side of the rocks is the "pond" where we all swim. Outside of the rocks is the many surf breaks at Ala Moana.

At our local Honolulu protest at the Hawaii State Capitol yesterday, lots of costumes were seen!
We had approximately 10,000 people at the Capitol, 3000 more than the last large protest.
The momentum is gaining!
