Sometimes I worry ...

about humom('s driving). With me in the car. In the front seat.  She has a seat belt around her [more than ample] waist. My seat belt protects my right rear leg. Wow.

Anywoo,  humom was a little silly about rainbows on Oahu, but let's face it, that's pretty much what there was to enjoy, so whatever.  A decent neon rainbow over the brutalist buildings -- nice contrast.  But since we've been back on Maui -- pause for Halleluiah chorus - she's become a menace.  We wake up and she springs to the window. Yodels "rainbow!"  Well, duhr.  Kula to Makawao sweeping over to Maui Meadows -- somewhere there's going to be a rainbow.  Every day.  Backflips not required.

So we drive into Town, which requires something called a Costco card.  Explain to me, please, why the human approach to hills is to ascend/descend in the most circuitous and bumpy manner possible?  The intelligent person of the canine persuasion susses out the most convenient and direct route and simply heads up- or down-hill, with a merry view-halloo, or silently if Mallie.  None of us would subject her best friend to a nauseating, bone-shaking, serpentine torture ride.  Esp. while hanging out the window at [insert # per hour that will not attract MPD] at an angle not in the direction of travel, trying to photograph a rainbow with the music app and cursing the iPhone in several languages.  News flash: the iPhone camera does not like rainbows, learn the lesson already.
