We were on Kauai, the garden island, which is the wettest of the islands. Even in the dry season, there are lots of waterfalls and the rivers are full.
We drove up Waimea Canyon, the "grand canyon" of Hawaii, and stopped to enjoy the views.
The road ends and to get any further, you have to hike. The ocean side of the mountain was shrouded in thick fog and the trail was muddy and very slick in spots, but we hiked a mile to the "viewpoint" in hopes that the fog would go away. In the photo below, you can see the ridge we were aiming at in the upper right corner. You can also see the famous red dirt of Kauai in the foreground. The big hiker with the hat is my hubby.
The ocean side was still socked in, but I got one nice shot into the canyon.

So sorry to hear you were so depressed for a while there. I hope you win that battle. Kauai looks beautiful and so peaceful. Thanks for sharing with us.
Cynthia, I actually understand clinical depression extremely well, having it myself. Been on meds since 1998. It was hard to find the right one, but Celexa proved to be the best. Recently, I was able to ask a dr. about newer antidepressants, and he said in his opinion, Celexa still worked the best. And it is so true that depression can be a factor even when everything is going well. If you will, please let me know how you are doing from time to time.
