Happy Anniversary

For our 11th Anniversary, Debbie and I went out to Hanuama Bay for some snorkeling and then went to dinner at Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville Restaurant.  We'll post the underwater pictures later once we get them developed, but the fish were fantastic and the water was warm.  No turtles though, maybe next time.

Family Retreat

Believe it or not, we went from one hotel to another last weekend for a family retreat with the unit that I'm assigned to out here in Hawaii.  As you can see the area was beautiful and the locals were pretty cool too.  Saturday night we went to a Luau and hung out with some folks from the "West Side."  The atmosphere is so much more laid back here.

Manoa Falls, Hawaii

Today we went hiking up to Manoa Falls.  The hike is about 0.8 of a mile long.  Located in a lush rainforest/valley.  The beginning of the trail crosses over a footbridge and then crosses a small stream through a grove of Eucalyptus trees.  The 0.8 mile trail gradually ascends through a lush rainforest ending at a viewing area set back from the base of the falls. 
Below are a couple of pictures that I took while on our hike.

 This trail was very muddy. 
As you can see Cheyenne just could not stay clean.
