Scene in Hawaii: View from My Mother’s Hospital Room
NOTE: DoT has been posting from Honolulu since late July when she left California to help her mother through some medical procedures. She will be doing so until she can return to Orange County.
Golf Course View From Mother's Hospital Window, 20 August 2009, Honolulu
DoT’s Thot: Finding the silver lining in our cloud was appreciating the view from the hospital room that mother was in and enjoying the sunset one day.

Mother is Getting Well: She Had a Nice View from Her Hospital Room
We watched the sunset from this window one evening when she was able to sit up, the day following her surgery. We were able to sit Mom in a chair by the window and watch as the sky darkened and pink streaks appeared in the west. She ate her hospital dinner there and we were happy, because she was told she could come home the next day. The golf course greens and the hillside homes with trees was a nice diversion that evening — our scene in Hawaii — a golf course view from the hospital window.
Aloha, DoT
P.S. Mom is recuperating nicely.
