A powerful, slow moving electrical storm came through the area last night. This is one of 2 trees in our hilltop neighborhood that was struck by lightning and blew up. Thankfully, the top of this tree fell on the detached garage and did little damage. Nobody was hurt either. The other struck tree had to be cut down because of extensive damage and possible danger. Note: Look at the post from yesterday to see the impending storm!

Stairway to Heaven trail over the Ko'olau Mountain Range. This is a hike I would LOVE to take, but it's closed due to a land dispute and lack of trail maintenance.

An unusual fog settled in over the bay, golf course and distant housing area. No wind and a muggy dampness made for a very eerie evening.
