Hi Picnik and welcome to DPS. This is a wonderful photo--the colors are so vibrant and it is framed so beautifully with the tree fronds. Hard to believe water can be that blue! I'm actually surprised there are not more DPS "members" from Hawaii. My, goodness, you live in such a beautiful place. I'll look forward to seeing more of your post.

That's so funny... I live right off of Kaneohe Bay Drive close to the Base and I love it here!

Thanks Ryan!
BTW it is really known as Chinaman's Hat (if you can believe it) The real name of this little island is Mololi'i, but no one calls it that.
