Baby gecko is thirsty!

I use a paper towel under my glass of water to collect the condensation.  The other night a baby gecko decided that was a good way to get a cool drink.

I have a couple of them that come every evening to help me with my embroidery. Actually I think they come for the little gnats that hover around my task lamp.

Thanks for listening.

Saturday Afternoon and a flight of beer

Kolby Fehlberg-BurnsComment

Yesterday, "A" and her boyfriend, Ernie, included me in their trip to The Maui Brewing Company. We went on a tour of the brewery and then were treated to a flight of beers. Maui Brewing Company is working on becoming 100% off the grid with their solar panels on the roof, they source their cans from Oahu and are such big supporters of Maui.

They did a special edition beer that supports the sharks research efforts which "E" is a team member of.

We had a great afternoon. After the tour we enjoyed our beers on the lanai.
 

Why is it called a "flight of beers" you ask?  A flight means a grouping of similar objects like a flight of stairs or a flight of geese. Now you know.

Thanks for listening.

Hot, Hot, hot!

In our garden, little Hawaiian chili peppers growing bigger every day.  They say that the 'Hawaiian'  is as hot as the average habañero values, or ~200,00 Scoville Heat Units.

They should be ready soon for you, Burns.

Thanks for listening.

Donuts

Playing with brass washers from the hardware store, salt water and batteries. They will get a good bath in patina chemicals soon.  But for now, I think they are fun. I finally found a good resist pen for making the dots and lines!

Thanks for Listening.
