2020 was a tough year! And, that is certainly an understatement. As we were turning the corner on getting this pandemic under control, my husband and I had the opportunity to spend 10 days in Maui. It was marvelous, to say the least. Among other things, we enjoyed our morning walks through the resorts and local neighborhoods. The flowers and foliage sparkled with sunlight and filled my soul with a forgotten sense of peace. The banana trees always made me feel hopeful as they reminded me of just how bunched up we've been, but happier days lie ahead. Hopefully "Going Bananas" marks the end of this pandemic and the beginning of new beginnings.
