There's a big puffy solid white cloud over my Hawaii childhood house. And, a bit of a cloud over my sister's house in Kaneohe. Pesky clouds.

Doesn't look like my mother was home when Google came by. Can't tell about my father, since he parks in the carport. There's a spot in the front lawn that doesn't make any sense -- I wonder if it's a person and their shadow?
