In 2007, I began my original website, Sonshine's Haven. In 2007, it was turned into a blog and used to keep family updated on my first husband's fight with liver cancer. He passed away November of 2009. We were married for 34+ wonderful years and this journals some of that grief process I've gone through.

I have since remarried another widower, but Mike is missed dearly, and will always be a big part of my life.

At times, all of us will be called to act as witnesses to the suffering of another. We will be unable to affect the outcome physically. Words will fail us. Prayer will seem futile. And yet, the act of bearing witness to someone else's trials is a sacred sorrow that offers and astounding glimpse of eternal joy." by Ginger Garrett

"Being willing to stay with a loved one throughout their travail, can be difficult....YES! But offering yourselves as faithful companions on a dark and dreadful journey can be an unmeasured blessing." (paraphrased by me)

Hilo Hawaii (The Big Island)

We See Land!  Hello Hilo!!!

A Blow Hole

Volcano Crater

 Inner Rim of Volcano Crater in the Center, and the Outer Rim

Restrictions have been made on how close tourists can get to the rim.  This is about the closest.  We've heard that since we've come home, the entire area has been restricted to tourists now.

In this picture...the volcano was only steaming, but Glenn and I got tired and went back to the tourist bus, and while we were in there, the volcano erupted. See the photos below!





Next....the Macadamia Nut Factory.............Souvenir time!!!
