The Cooks are the islands that time forgot.
When you are here time loses meaning.
You don’t wear a watch,
or have a clock.
You rise with the sun,
and set with it too.
You are on island time.
You make island friends,
like Jim’s hiking partners,
and my little buddy who are on island time too!
Cheers to you from the timeless Cooks~

Raro’s Adogables~
Rarotonga is the island of happy dogs. No matter what you do, a dog will come with you.
They wait at your door for you to come out.
Swimming?
If you swim, they will come along!
They swim to distant reefs with our son everyday.
Fishing?
Heck yes!
They are master fisherdogs and,
they bring their catch to you!
Hiking? Their paw prints mark your path.
Cheers to you from Rarotonga’s incredible adogables~
Raro Dreams~
Woo Hoo!
I made a friend in Rarotonga named Emma from the island of Atiu, and she helped me find a hotspot that worked, albeit, it was quite a challenge.
Thank you Emma & Kia Orana!
Raro has amazing pristine beaches,
coral reefs,
and empty, jungle-covered volcanic mountains to explore.
Our son is exploring with us, and tomorrow we head to the more remote island of Aitutaki.
Cheers to you from the unspoiled & ethereal Cook Islands~
Magic on Wings~
Like the hummers, we have flown away,
to a place where wi-fi doesn’t fly.
I can’t get a satellite signal consistent enough to upload,
here in The Cook Islands.
But, I am getting stunning island vistas.
Sending Holler Hummer hopes that you are healthy and well,
and looking forward to connecting with you when we fly back to civilization.
Until then, cheers to you from the incredible Cooks~
Colorful Creatures~
Create their own vibrant light.
Phaninopepla, dark as midnight,
in full light, is radiant dark blue, with deep red eyes.
Male orioles, kings of beauty, rock yellow and black,
while male grosbeaks flash black, orange and white.
Mr Jay will drive our blues away,
as hummingbirds fly their own private rainbows!
Cheers to you from The Holler’s colorful creatures~
