Piano practice update: Missed playing while on vacation, so very glad to be back to my piano. πŸ’– 🎹 Fortunately, I didn't forget too much while I was gone. Hope you enjoy the second part of Elite Syncopations by Scott Joplin. (Dog shook her collar at the beginning! Silly dogs.) #piano #pianist

Speaking of reactive plants, there were sensitive plants (Mimosa pudica) just growing wild around the Big Island. I'd only ever seen these for sale on stores. Of course, we couldn't resist touching the touch-me-nots πŸ˜‚

For anyone curious about tropical fruits, here's a video on mountain apples vs guava. Fun fact: Apples & pears are very closely related. "Mountain apples" are completely unrelated. I want a poster of fruit tree phylogenetics. Filmed on Friday in Hilo, #Hawaii. (Yes, with a giant banyan tree.)

Explored lava tubes yesterday. πŸŒ‹ Kept imagining how they could make a suitable underground base. And, because #scifi fan, kept imagining the lava tubs on #Mars. Pretty roomy! Filmed yesterday at #Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Apologies for shoddy camera work- it was dark! #volcano #nature #cave

Thanks, Luis! Not a photograph, but here's a peaceful jungle stream for you. Taken at the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden. Hope you're enjoying the weekend! #Hawaii #jungle #nature #wildlife

Hairspray! Classic! Lot of work, but probably fun to do that type of production. Here's a short fun video for you. 🦎 πŸ’–

Finally got to recording a video of this massive banyan tree in Hilo, Hawaii, in Mo'oheau Park. Video still doesn't do it justice, but improvement upon still photos! Just want to climb up there and hide from civilization for a bit. πŸ’– 🌳 #trees #Hawaii #nature #wildlife

Yes, amazing setup for living in the jungle! Wonder how long I'd last... One more tree to share- cannonball tree! Native to the Amazon that makes huge edible, but foul smelling, cannonball-like fruit 😯 Gorgeous flowers. #Pollinators love it. So, that's the coolest tree I saw today. 🌳 πŸ’– 😁 #trees

One of my favorite things to do when traveling is try new, local food. Last enjoyed ice cream beans (Inga edulis) 13 yrs ago, when I last visited #Hawaii. Got some from the same Farmer's Market today. πŸ’– Exactly as ridiculous as I remember. 🍦 #fruit #tropical #food #icecream #legumes #gardening

πŸ˜‚ Yes, 13 years ago! Pre-kiddos. So I'm probably not allowed to be quite so reckless anymore. πŸ˜‚ And speaking of parenthood, saw this very responsible mother today. Love the wild jungle chickens here.

Thanks, Pamela! Somehow we didn't spot any other mushrooms (wondering if it's too warm), but here's another random jungle video share - a resilient arboreal worm. (Sorry for the shaky cam.) Hope your week is off to a good start, Pamela! #bugs #annelids #jungle #wildlife

Alright, fine, I'll share the tree fern video too (even though it's a bit wobbly - apologies). I grew up with tree ferns in my backyard and really miss them. Maybe I'll get a greenhouse someday.

Excited to share the 2nd piano piece I'm learning after a 25-year hiatus. Like the 1st, I'm teaching myself this #ragtime song because I wrote a #scifi story about an immortal who loves him some Scott Joplin. Hope you enjoy the intro to Elite Syncopations. #piano #writing #writingcommunity #music

Biggest #bumblebee I've ever seen buzzed all over our mint plant #flowers. Its sheer mass dragged them down! #spring #nature #bugs #pollinators #video #bee #bees

πŸ’–πŸπŸŒΈ Jax, I saw several #bees today on our apple trees and thought of you! Here's one encounter with a busy worker. So glad you're seeing them there too! πŸ’–πŸ”₯ #flowers #pollinators
