Travelogue: Hawaii #3

+Janet Swanson and I are recalling our Hawaii trip, and one of our memorable moments was going to see the double waterfall at Wailua on the island of Kauai. The waterfall itself is amazing (it was part of the opening scenery in the old Fantasy Island tv series), but we got just as much of a kick talking to a mainland transplant that we affectionately refer to as "Coconut Dude". He was camped out by the overlook of the falls. He was not selling coconuts - for that would have been a clear violation of the No Soliciting sign that was posted there - but he had a stack of fresh-picked coconuts that he was giving away for a "free will donation". He left the mainland to pursue his love interest on Kauai (not sure how that was working out...), and he was biding his time climbing trees and *not* selling coconuts. To this day, we get a good laugh out of his free spirit. A good reminder for us all to let go of the seriousness of the world sometimes.

Today you get a three-fer... three shots from Wailua Falls and "Coconut Dude".
