Introduction to the Grounded Redbird

Having discovered travel from a very young age, it is a part of me that runs rampid through my blood.  The excitement of even just a short roadtrip to the mountains or beyond the familiar sides of town ... is exhilarating!   Having only recently taken up photography, there is now  even MORE excitement in travel ... the bags packed are even BIGGER and HEAVIER as I carefully select (ALL) my camera gear ... to include car charger just in case ONE Of my batteries dies off (you think?) 

Things I LOVE are my family ... my WHOLE family, the light of my life at the moment, step aside Sony baby, is my grand daughter.  I love crafting things with my enormous rubber stamp collection, tea parties, having friends and family drop by, reading inspirational poetries and stories, and of course, this new hobby (new?  TEN YEARS NOW) ... computer and internet.  Because I wouldn't change a thing in my life, the only regret I have is that I didn't take up photography earlier in life. 

I will go far out of my way to help a friend in need, but baby, don't hurt me!    When you really get to know me, you will discovered my passions :  redbirds, travel, sony baby (photography), VT, rubberstamp crafting, pink sweaters, ham and COCA COLA!!! 

My homelife babies at the farm are as follows:  two yaks named Maile and Pikake.  FOUR housecats, named Secret, Ms Kitty, Kolohe and Kaui(onalani).  At inception of this journal, we are also keeping 3 goats, 1 cow and three barn cats. 

For the time being, this redbird is grounded, with travel being limited to a few trips to search out the perfect yak bull or improving our property down south.
