Jungle Fowl, Tree Tunnel, Pomegranate

1. Watching the "Kings of the Road" proudly strutting up and down the windy stretch through Waimea Canyon as if they truly do own the place. This doesn’t stop the mothers from keeping a close eye on their chicks.

2. Driving through the “Tree Tunnel” a fellow at our dinner table last night couldn’t say enough good things about. While far from the magical experience described, I couldn’t help but chuckle at the memory of his enthusiasm. I suspect it had something to do with having his girlfriend snuggled up behind him on a motorbike.

3. Peeling a ripe pomegranate in record time and feeling the thrill a treasure hunter must when coaxing precious ruby red jewels out of their pithy nests with a gentle but firm touch.
