A couple of days ago I posted an early morning view from my house (here). This was the view the other way on the evening of that same day.

I saw this tire on a car parked outside the local Costco Tire Center. In the U.S., this kind of tire is known as a donut, a temporary tire intended to get the car to the nearest garage for a proper fix. Those labels on the wheel explain, in four languages, the limitations of this spare tire together with the speed that should not be exceeded.
Judging from the state of the tire, I suspect the driver didn’t pay too much attention to those warnings.

The view behind the house, just before making coffee!

What I like about this bench at Pana’ewa Zoo & Gardens in Hilo, is that two can sit on it.

The idea of The Numbers Game is to enter a number into the search bar of your computer and then post a selection of the photos that turn up. This week’s number is 216. Captions are on the photos. You can see more responses here.

This view shows pretty much the entirety of Lapakahi State Historical Park. On the right is the lighthouse, which is just north of the park boundary. The left edge of the photo is close to the park’s southern boundary. What you don’t see in this broad view are the rock structures that were part of the original fishing village.
