Gorgeous morning turned stormy!

You wouldn’t know it by this photo, but this absolutely gorgeous morning turned into a stormy sky that brought some rain to Kihei!  My paddle down to the boat ramp was wonderful.  Only some interesting clouds were in the sky, with some of them draping the mountain top.  It was a bit windy when I got to the beach, so I decided against taking my mask and snorkel.  I saw a turtle just outside of Kam I and stopped paddling so I could look at it.  The turtle floated on the surface for a few minutes, popped it’s head up two or three times, and then dove down and disappeared.  When I arrived at the boat ramp, the water was crystal clear, much clearer than yesterday!  I really wished I had taken my mask and snorkel!  I paddled the quiet zone back to Kam I and really enjoyed the solitude, until a jet ski roared out of nowhere and ended that.  I really don’t like jet skis because I think they ruin the ambiance out on the ocean.  When I got back from paddling, the skies started to turn gray and it was clearly raining out further in the ocean.  Later, Kihei ended up getting some rain too!  Hey, Kihei can always use the rain, it’s all good!

No sign of rain on this gorgeous morning!
