DAY FOUR JUICING AND SHOPPING

It seems we are NOT finished with the shopping for the condo yet.  So annoying.  We are in desperate need of drawers for the bedrooms, especially the guest room.  We have been to every furniture store on Maui. Every single one!!!  So today we decided to go back to Pier 1.  They had a pretty cute, whitish pot belly type bedside table with three drawers.  Very cute.  We bought two and they will have to go under the window.  We will move that little table and chair in there out to the patio.  We need that out there too. We get the tables on Thursday and I shall take pics.  But in the meantime we travelled all over this island. It was fun.  One sour note:

On our way back from Lahaina we stopped off at a wee side beach on the ocean.  The water was the oddest green/blue, extremely so.  I wanted a picture.  We stopped in a very isolated spot, no cars around except one.  The people were down the beach swimming etc... (pics below).  I had to go to the loo and there happened to be a portable sitting right there.  Bill and the car were quite a way down the other way so I had no choice but to take my camera in with me.  Now this particular unit was NOT clean or kept up and was leaning in a very decided tilt.  There was paper, thank goodness but that is about all I can say positive about the place.  In I go, shut and lock the door and....okay, where do I put the camera?  No way can it go on the floor, that was very clear, obviously not in the little plastic urinal, so I decided to set it near the back of the ledge that the toilet seat hole was in.  The ledge went from wall to wall and I set the camera way over  at the far edge.  I let it down gently and stepped back to unbuckle things and unbeknownst to me the ledge was on a slant, not one that was discernible to the naked eye but that camera shot down and over, right to the edge of the toilet hole.  The seat was up (like why? i ask).  I shot forward like a speeding gazelle and grabbed that sucker just as it went over the edge!!!  And I won't even tell you what was in there!  My $2,000 camera would have been gone for good cuz not even two thousand could get me to fish that out of there.  I then set it on the floor and used sterile wipes to clean it when I got back to the car.  Holy Crap!! is all I could think.



 THE OFFENDING TURLETT....IT MATCHED THE WATER THOUGH



 MY FRIDGE, TOTALLY FULL OF VEGETABLES (AND BUTTER FOR MAKING SHORTBREAD FOR THE CREW HERE)
 THIS IS A QUILTED RUNNER I BOUGHT AT HILO HATTIES...THOUGHT IT WAS TOO PRETTY TO USE ON A TABLE
Juicing today was good.  I would prefer steak and spuds ten ways but thats okay.  I kind of like the mental challenge of it all.  I didn't weigh but my shorts are falling off.  I do believe that it won't be long before I will have to retire them.  I am sad.  I LOVE these shorts:(  TTYL
