Day 4
















Breakfast then on to the airport. Our day consisted of all traveling. What should only take a person 2 hours, takes the entire day. The Maui flight is only 30 minutes, however you are expect you to be at the airport 2 hours prior. Once in Maui, we got our rental jeep. Mark told me I got to pick out the color. I made fun out of it and picked the bright yellow one. At first he thought no way, but it was my choice and it was the most fun jeep, he agreed. We hopped on the main road only to discover there was a bad accident and the one and only highway was closed. We went to the nearest harbor and ate lunch and hung out for a couple hours. Back on the highway, it was slow going. The traffic was one lane, stop and go. We didn’t get to our hotel until 5PM. Our hotel was the Sheraton right on the beach near a rock snorkel spot. The hotel was awesome and very large. There were so many pretty flowers and the air feels so nice.
After getting settled, we had dinner in downtown Lahaina where all the shops are at a place called Fish and Co. The downtown area was very busy, lots of people. This island is more tourists and islanders than the Japanese or elderly. You see so many different types of people.

Volleyball

Jake  went with Karen after school and to the field. My mom, Luke and I went to Jayden’s  Volleyball game in Coon Rapids.  They played 4 games all losses. They were not having a good serving night and that really hurt them.  Still enjoy watching them learn.

Treasures

 In the morning we took 3 of our 4 cats to the vet for shots. The 4 th cat decided to wander this morning missing his appointment. On our way out, we passed a rummage sale and stopped. We got some major treasures for next to nothing. The church ladies were so fascinated with Jacob's interest in old radios and televisions. They just adored him and marked the prices way down and gave him some for free. We loaded up on kids books, got some board games, and a few other treasures. Jake ended up with a mini  television , an old radio and Polaroid camera. After lunch the boys went straight to the field. My friend Carolyn and her daughter Tabby came to ride horses. What started out to be a chilly day 45, turned out nice and sunny. We had coats on, but it was a great day to ride. We rode through our hay patch and along the waterway near the highway. It was a great way to spend the afternoon.

Dayton Fun Show

 It has been cold and windy for the past week, highs of 45. Today the sun was shinning and it got up to 60. There was one final horse show for the season at the Dayton arena. We took Jayden and Jacob while Luke went with Grammer and Po and was supposed to come later. It was a fun show geared for practice and the kids. Jake did really well on Winnie, he rode in walk and trot, barrels, and poles. He did some loping. Jayden did pleasure, milk can, barrels, poles, and a jumping event. Her horse Tex really jumps high for the jump event. Down in the arena, there was'nt any wind and the sun came out. It made for a nice day.
