That was a very fun trip we took.  The mountain is Mt Hood in Oregon, the area is called Timberline.  There is a beautiful Hotel there.  People were still skiing and snowboarding the day we took this picture and it was July!  The Hotel has been featured in movies, such as the Shining, a horror movie starring Jack Nicholson (sp?)

I started riding a motorcycle about two years ago.  My boyfriend got me started.  I love it!  This bike is a 2005 Harley-Davidson Heritage Classic.  So far we have ridden to Oregon twice and Eastern Washington once for a total of over 5000 miles.  Spencer, my boyfriend/fiance/significant other rides a 2003 Harley-Davidson Ultra Classic Electra Glide.  His bike has all the comforts such as a CD player, and cruise control.  I get to sing to myself when I ride my bike.

Because of the overwhelming positve response I recieved to yesterday’s blog entry (Mariko added a comment and Norman sent me a message )  I planned to come here and write something deep and philosophical.  Unfortuanely however, I’m not deep or philosophical, so I’ll just leave you with a joke I heard the other day:

How did the chicken with no legs cross the road?

He took the "F" out of "Way".

Don’t worry.  If you don’t get it now you will later.

Time is moving at such a rapid pace!  We just finished a rehearsal with string students from the Kamehameha Maui Elementary and Middle School.  We’re preparing for a concert on Thursday, April 19, 2006 at Hale Makua in Wailuku. Hale Makua is a home for the elderly who need care.  This is a good opportunity for us to reach out into the community using the gifts and talents we are developing, even at the beginning levels.  The students here are sweet…tons of energy, but kind-hearted. 

I feel as though I’m dog-paddling and/or sinking, trying to juggle too many balls at once. Meeting with the Maui Youth Philharmonic Conductors tonight and then jumping on a plane tomorrow a.m. to rehearse with the Honolulu Symphony! 

I’m in need of God’s grace and mercy to get me through all of this!  Please keep me in your prayers as I need God’s wisdom in making many decisions for the direction of many programs!!  HELP!

日曜日と月曜日、彼の二歳になるめいはイースターのチョコレートを食べていましたので、とってもハイパーになっていました。キャンデーがまだ私をハイパーにさせたら、すばらしいと思います！

My boyfriend’s two year old niece has been super wired the past couple of days, because she’s been eating her Easter candy.  I think it would be awesome if candy still made me that hyper!
