Our first visitor came to Kaua'i on a medical conference. We visited Laura's family when Emily and I were in Minnesota last August. Her husband, Dave, was my youth pastor growing up in Wilmington, DE. Laura and I took the dogs for an epic exploration of Waimea Canyon - check it out!

Hiking in the Clouds on the Alakai Swamp Trail
When we were lucky, there were planks on the trail over the swampy muck. The power pole is left over from WWII when the military put in the poles over the ridge to the North Shore in order to have another power source in case the Japanese took the main harbor in Lihue.
Much of the trail was straight muck - yet eerily beautiful!
