Montana Road Trip 2010, Chapter Thirty-Five

Posted on February 13, 2016 by Mokihana

My head is so full of words, of stories, of pictures. There’s so much I want to write about! I have come to realize that through this little bloggie, I am a storyteller at heart. Yeah, I’ll show you my knitting, or my spinning. And that’s a good thing. But what I love most is telling stories about what’s going on in my life, about the places I’ve been, and the things I’ve seen along the way. So I guess you could say that my blog is about the journeys I’m on, long and short, big and small.

That said, how about we go back to the Montana Road Trip of 2010? Okay?  Okay.

We’d just driven up to the freeway from the fascinating town of Wallace. U know, da one with all da makule buildings, and da whole town is on da historic register?  Yeah, dat one.  So here we are just about to drive makai onto I-90, heading home from Montana.

Holoholo Kaʻa i Dallesport, Washington

Posted on January 23, 2016 by Mokihana

Nolemana and I got an appraisal request in Dallesport, Washington, which, under normal circumstances, we never would have accepted because the town is an hour and a half from us. However, this client was absolutely desperate and agreed to pay us extra because of the distance and the time it would require. We like to help out clients whenever we can, and after being sick for so long, I thought it’d be a good idea to get the hell out of Dodge for a day. Besides, we’d never been to Dallesport before, so what the heck.

We knew that rain was forecast; what we didn’t know was that it would be in the form of a deluge all the way up and back through the Columbia River Gorge. Lidis:
