Featured in Member's Choice Outdoors ~ Beaches August 2007 ~ Featured Outdoors Member's Choice Beaches 07 November 2007 ~ This composite image taken while sailing on the Ali'i Nui catamaran (http://www.aliinuimaui.com/charters.htm ) on a Humpback Whale watching tour of Kealaikahiki Channel and the beautiful deep blue waters of the Pacific Ocean near Maui, Hawai'i is dedicated to my dearest friends David and Karen Knott [ DavidKnott13 ] ~ ~ THE ROAD THAT NEVER ENDS ~ words and music: Jim Kimball (c)JimmyJangle Music "Here we are In this holy place together Bearing witness as the two of you Become man and wife On this day As you join in heart and spirit You begin another chapter In the book of life. Love is a circle that surrounds you You can find it on the faces Of your family and friends Love, let it wrap its arms around you And guide you on your journey Down the road that never ends There's a song in your heart You can hear it if you listen As it whispers through the branches High above the family tree And as time Plays its melody upon you You can rest assured in knowing That you're right where you should be." Performed by Keali`i Reichel ~ Keali`i was born and raised on Maui, growing up in Lahaina and spending weekends and summers at his grandmother's house in windward Pa`ia. His passion for the language and culture of Hawai`i led him to become the founding director for Punana Leo O Maui, the Hawaiian language immersion school. He also founded his own hula school, Halau Ke`alaokamaile, in 1980 and has won numerous awards for hula and chant over the years. In 1994 he independently produced and released a collection of Hawaiian traditional and contemporary songs and chants entitled "Kawaipunahele." His subsequent music releases, "Lei Hali`a" (1995), "E O Mai" (1997), "Melelana" (1999), "Ke`alaokamaile (2003), "Kamahiwa"(2004) and "Maluhia" (2006) have cemented his place in the Hawaiian music industry. All told, he has been awarded 28 Na Hoku Hanohano Awards (Hawai`i's version of the Grammy), and his consistent placement in Billboard Magazine's World Music and Heatseeker Charts has garnered him international attention. Keali`i retains his initial goal of presenting new compositions in the Hawaiian language for hula students, and works to dispel long-held stereotypes of Hawai`i's living culture and her indigenous people.

Sharon, your photos show your heart. I had hoped to download one of your scenes. I wanted to put the song lyrics of Dante's Prayer to a scene photo that would be appropriate as a personal gift to a dear friend. If you could pick out a photo that you feel might be more fitting I would appreciate your input. You can email me at DaRocksMom@aol.com if you have the time. I do not know how to contact you any other way. Jane Loreena McKennitt Dante's Prayer Lyrics: When the dark wood fell before me And all the paths were overgrown When the priests of pride say there is no other way I tilled the sorrows of stone I did not believe because I could not see Though you came to me in the night When the dawn seemed forever lost You showed me your love in the light of the stars Cast your eyes on the ocean Cast your soul to the sea When the dark night seems endless Please remember me Then the mountain rose before me [ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/blc ] By the deep well of desire From the fountain of forgiveness Beyond the ice and fire Cast your eyes on the ocean Cast your soul to the sea When the dark night seems endless Please remember me Though we share this humble path, alone How fragile is the heart Oh give these clay feet wings to fly To touch the face of the stars Breathe life into this feeble heart Lift this mortal veil of fear Take these crumbled hopes, etched with tears We'll rise above these earthly cares Cast your eyes on the ocean Cast your soul to the sea When the dark night seems endless Please remember me Please remember me

Thank you so much for this beautiful dedication to David and myself. What a wonderful photo - it looks like the blue goes on forever and the words to this song ring true to my soul. Something I will hold close to my thoughts over and over as a reminder of the love that surrounds us all.
