The Succulents and Pottery Compulsion

My daughter Noe got me interested in succulents in early 2016 and ever since we've been on a quest!!! Naturally with so many new plants around, we needed pots to put all of them into. The typical pots you can buy from the big box stores just don't have character that suits these incredibly interesting plants. So we've both been making our own pottery. And now we're branching out into other plants - Aeroids, Orchids and Citrus!!! Check out what our green thumbs have been doing!!!

Aquatic Gardening

While Marlon was at his last Hawaii Youth Symphony Orchestra practice for the 2016-2017 season, Noe, La and I took a short trip to the Waikiki Aquarium to celebrate Earth Day. I've always loved aquariums - they are just as relaxing as tending gardens - just with different focuses (and a lot more mechanical equipment). Walking around here makes me miss being able to grow Tridacnid clams and coral, but honestly if I want to watch aquarium residents, I just need to put on a mask and snorkel - they are better off in the ocean anyways.

Always a great time at the Waikiki Aquarium!
