    Congratulations on your new swallows neighbors! How exciting! I love watching our neighborhood swallows eat all those pesky gnats.

    “Stalked by Cows” would be an interesting band name. I *love* that cow chair (as you knew I would). And your 5/30 photo of Hōkū & Bessie is especially nice.

    Kalakoa is adorable.

      Mahalo nui… I do hope the swallows stay and raise a family. I love watching them soaring over the pasture and getting bugs.

      I knew you’d love the chair!
