September 2006--My twins (age 6) after completing a grueling hike up Le'ahi Crater (Diamondhead). If anyone has done the hike, you are aware of what a b***h the hike is. Having done the hike plenty of times in my youth (having been raised in Honolulu) I passed on the hike, and instead had a shave ice, took some pictures and sunbathed...while my husband and the kids went all the way to the top!!

The twins are adorable Jenn and having made that hike 2 years ago (for the first time and at age 58), I would def leave it to the younger ones ;) You're right, it is a B... but the kids love it and I have to say, it is a treasure to get to the top. Nice clarity here and beautiful background. Nicley done.

They look like they had a blast Jenn ! Your kids are absolutely adorable hon !

On a more serious note, is everyone in your family okay ? I heard about the earthquake this morning & immediately thought of you.

They are growing up ... and fast, Jenn.

Nice shot too. :o)

Although ... this may come back to haunt you as they recollect mom sitting and enjoying the sights and sounds as they completed their trek.

"Mom ... tell us again, the story of Diamondhead ... and why I still feel faint at the sight of mountains ..." :oP

Yes, I did the hike with an 8 year old. The end is a bit of a winding, dark squeeze. Nice memory. Cute kids.

Yesterday's history. Tomorrow's a mystery. Today's a gift. That's why it's called the present.
