Taking a photo of this Caribbean Agave, the important thing is not to lean over too far!

Children’s Day
The Jodo Mission in Hawi is getting ready to celebrate Children’s Day. This traditional Japanese holiday was known as Boy’s Days, celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month, while Girl’s Day was celebrated on March 3, the third day of the third month. These days, there’s a push to celebrate both as Children’s Day on May 5th. One of the features is the flying of carp-shaped windsocks. There will also be gifts and special treats.
The windsock photo is posted for Bushboy’s Last on the Card challenge. See more responses here.

What’s wrong with this picture?
My favorite scene from my time spent in a waiting room a week or so ago. I hadn’t seen these wet bags before, but one would think that, to keep the floor dry, the bags would be better by the door. As it is, people have to walk across the dry floor, getting it wet, to access a wet bag to keep it dry!

Evey day is Earth Day
This week’s Sunday Stills challenge theme is ‘Earth Day.’ See more responses here.
I’m never quite sure what’s appropriate for Earth Day, but I figure nature, farming and renewable energy fit the bill, so here are some photos from a recent walk in the neighborhood.
