Reminded mum I had to walk the dog. I rather journal than read a book, I just started editing. Walking with Kahu, and Im not walking alone…No way, but Im not rushing mum, she ain’t budging anyway. Mum likes to walk alone slowly in the dark. Stop and wait. Stop. Go. Stop. Go. Mum has this thing about staying up late. She can stay up for hours, 3 days on a full moon and has really good smell and foresight. My uncles would agree, and Aunty said she seen a ghost and mum doesn’t even care, she laughs and said told you so…every time I here the story. She likes Staring at the sky alone if she’s not underwater, or foraging deep in thoughts mauka, ends with taking photos at night . She likes to stay near graveyards,”…closest you can get is near a body of water and grove of trees” whatever that means. I always have to tell her hurry up. She said you sound like grandpas. My uncles tell me she needs to slow down I think you have to be around her long enough to know most the time she is alone staring at things. She just likes to enjoy nature , and if she’s not joking around , she’s listening to stories of the dead. She says the crickets tell her stories, and I have to tell her to stop staying in the middle of the road. We get to grandma Carmens wedding kumu niu hookupu that are the same age as her, she says “ hi grams and hi Max.” We go walk along the reef, see family and my brother @laniakea_love resting kinolau all in his lil waa. She tells me to look at Orion in English and asks me what time is it? She’s talking about our calendar clock with Mahina. Its a decade, and transition of my brothers day to the transfer into the coming year and summer. Same place different time. These are one of those moments. #temanalove #kahutime #letsgo #weback #mahina #nightwalker #kahupuppy #mooncalendar #pokiikauna #laniakealove #moosaurus #mylilfatgecko #konadistrict #lonoikamakahiki #uhane #maumau #nightmarcher #ladyinwhite #portageedislady #hokuleacrews1976 #iwipolena #kaumualii #oomano #iamlaka #hemokuhewaa #kekaomakalii #oiwi #storyofstuff #kaheiheionakeiki #nightphotography (at Pokii, Hawaii) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca1nsAerOI1/?utm_medium=tumblr
