June - Brady's Graduation and our Hawaii Vacation

We would tell our friends that we HAD to go to Hawaii for our son in law's graduation. There are just some things you just have to do. (No one twisted our arms.)

We had a wonderful time there. We rented a house on the beach across from Foodland in Laie, where Jennelle and Brady lived and went to school at BYU Hawaii. Our first stop was the Shrimp Shack. Several places we visited were Wiamaia Falls Botanical Garden. Dennis took alot of flower pictures there. (By the way my latest first place ribbon at the Camera Club was the Canopy from there) Arizonia Memorial, Mossimotos, the beach, 4 wheeler trip back into the interrior. That was a blast. Here are some pictures from the trip.



Congratulations Brady!!!!

This is a picture from the back patio of our house we rented. We were literally 20 feet away from the beach. Jennelle and Brady stayed with us after their last day at the Dorms. Jennelle taking pictures of Brady swimming.

There are so many of these places along the North Shore Road. We loved stopping at the Shrimp shacks to feast.


Some of Brady's underwater photography with Dennis' new underwater camera.




Can you believe that I could get underwater far enough to take this picture?


Another fist place Photos from Camera Club "Pipeline in June"



We stopped at Turtle beach and found lots of turtles hawled out on the beach. This is another First Place Camera Club Photo. "Hang Ten Dude"


On our 4 wheeler trip we weren't allowed to take pictures until we stopped. This is where they filmed Jurasic Park, King Kong , Pearl Harbor, and other films.
