Peru movies

Hi folks,

When Jack and I did the 4 day hike on the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in Peru last month, I had my video cam going. I have edited it down to three parts and put them on You Tube.

Part 1: "Footsteps Over Dead Woman's Pass"

part 2: "Footsteps of the Incas"

Part 3: "Footsteps of Hiram Bingham" (Machu Picchu)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isY5RZbf2Dc


Fair warning: each part is about 10 minutes long


Enjoy!

Jim and Jack in Peru






Hi folks,

Jack and I had a great time hiking the Inca Trail in Peru for spring break. It was a challenge well worth the effort. Jack is thriving in Peru and now speaks fluent Spanish. He will be home for summer before heading off to college in the fall. I can't get over how lucky I am to have such a fine son, so independent and fun to hang out with. How did this happen?

I put a few photos on the web at

Gray Flannel

Sierra, Jay, and Dad are spending the weekend on Molokai. The sad news is that Gray Flannel passed away. He was a longtime family pet cat here on Molokai....as old as Jack! Here are a few shots of his grave.

Maui big wave




Here’s a few shots from Simeon and Jim’s quick trip to Maui at Thanksgiving to hang out with Dave Kalama. We hiked to the cliff that overlooks Peahi on a big day and stayed at Dave’s house. We got to watch Dave go out with Laird Hamilton on their jet skis, hang out with his dad Ilima, and try stand up surfing a little.
