Looks like you have an exclusive rest area how convenient for you Dave. I did quickie ride as well, instead of riding the usual gravel and packed dirt rail trails on the westside heading to work. I went easterly direction on Pearl Harbor bike path mostly asphalt surface no need to wear my back brace too hot for it anyway my organs wasn't shaken up too much specially my liver and kidneys.
I stopped at an area alongside the pathway near the water's edge to click some pictures to my surprise a couple in their 30's with a very young little girl probably 4yo.
holding half empty small bottle of sunkist came out from the thick mangroves. The woman spoke first offered to sell me fish i guess they were fishing from a makeshift camp. I declined i didn't ask what kind fish it was more than likely salt water tilapia. The man then spoke and politely ask "Uncle I can barrow $10?"
I wanted to say no but I noticed the little girl with her eyes fixed on me she appeared clean so as the couple but I see signs of malnourishment.
I ended giving them my lunch money $25 only cash I had with me.
A bit depressing how unfortunate some people are.
I carried on headed towards Aloha Stadium swap meet. There were ATM machines carefully placed on one corner of parking lot problem solved with lunch.
Oh yeah pictures. Aside from seeing those homeless people. I had fun nonetheless. I enjoyed a refreshing pina colada flavored shave ice .
I was low tide when I started my excursion. On one picture you'll see oysters stuck on rocks. I tried to dislodge it with my every day carry knife and I found it very difficult. They're small anyway.
Overall it's a good day. I got a very decent amount of exercise my lungs also feels better from breathing morning fresh air. I admit my younger cousin showed up unannounced last Friday evening with generous amount of potent cannabis. Long story short we were stone out our minds, ladies couldn't figure out two middle age men watching Dispicable Me and laughing our heads off, polished off 10lb bag of fried chicken wings chips and salsa and $100 platter of Di nigiri. (Sushi platter from Taniokas)
I really needed this morning's ride.
Whatever good brain cells I have is clearer not muddled with vodka and Vado. I remember now why my cousin came to visit. He wanted to barrow my leaf blower. I was gonna let him use the corded blower since it's stronger. I noticed he helped himself to my shed and took my cordless blower. Now I'm stuck with my corded blower to dry my bike, (post ride wash and inspection.)
I recently had five Ring cameras installed.
