Perfect Moment Monday

A few weeks back I had the great pleasure of traveling with my amazing man to Hawaii.  No kids, just us.  That's right, this old widow has found love again and we had a phenomenal time.  I can say without hesitation it's impossible to take a bad picture on Maui, it's breathtakingly beautiful at every turn and we will definitely return.

Definitely.

Like all good touristy-folk, we did the Road to Hana our second day on the island.  BigG had done it as a kid with his family (car sickness and all) but didn't remember much.  We soon discovered that (much like life) it's not about the destination but the journey.

So I was standing above the Seven Sacred Pools snapping away with my camera.  We're talking mind-blowing beauty all around, I just couldn't get enough of it.

 It had been raining most of the morning
but suddenly the clouds parted, 
skies cleared,
the sun shined brightly..


And right after I took this picture...

He, in the most gallant fashion, proposed.

A Perfect (& Sacred) Moment Beyond Words..
