These rugged rocks surround the famous black sand beach. It's located on the famous road to Hana - if you've never taken the drive it is so worth it. Here's a brief description for you: </div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #838383; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.79px;">Along Maui's rugged eastern coastline is the peaceful town of Hana, considered one of the last unspoiled Hawaiian frontiers. The legendary road to Hana is only 52 miles from Kahului, however the drive can take anywhere from two to four hours to complete since it's fraught with narrow one-lane bridges, hairpin turns and incredible island views.</span></div>

This October Sweetie and I spent two weeks on Maui. I really wanted to keep up with posting my photos - firstly to share the beauty, and secondly to keep a diary of our trip. It only took 1 day and I was on island time... way too laid back to care. This is the first sunset we saw from our lanai. Pretty wonderful.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I found two of these ugly duckling chairs in Victoria - the second one is in pieces already</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
they cost me $6.99 for one & $7.99 for the other</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the young man was not sure why the price difference</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wasn't sure why they were so cheap!</div>

<div align="center">
Some new upholstery (I didn't do it, that's why it looks so good!)</div>
<div align="center">
I found the indoor/outdoor fabric at Fabric Land at a 50% discount</div>
<div align="center">
had the cushions replaced with outdoor foam</div>
<div align="center">
a lovely chalk paint finish on the wood with Benjamin Moore Antique Lace </div>
<div align="center">
and here they are... </div>
<div align="center">
I think they are too nice to go outside - but if they do</div>
<div align="center">
I won't have to worry about it!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the real stuff, like on blackboards</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I saw the coolest chalk paint sheep in Chintz & Co a few years ago</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but I was too cheap to buy it</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I found a terracotta chicken</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and painted it myself</div>
