Today was plentiful.

My gardening friend greeted me with this basket full of greens from her garden this morning.  You can see what’s for dinner tonight.

Then I went on to Kauai Community Radio with two fellow DJs and we finished KKCR’s Fund Drive, earning $3500 in an hour and a half.  It was a collective community effort that felt magical.

Jeb got into the spirit and drew a picture:  “For KKCR” with a $1 followed by 17 zeros – his hope and vision for the radio station’s donations.

Walking near my home at sunset, I see natural abundance everywhere.
