Lincoln Hills Arts Association took me to lunch last week as I ended my 4 year term as President. It was a fun time and they gave me a terrific vase shaped like a brush holder!
Here are a few pictures:

More on Maui
Still more ideas of things to do when you are ready for a change of pace away from the shore. You can still get great views of the ocean Upcountry. O'o Farm is worth a visit they have gourmet organic lunch tours every Wednesday and Thursday. The produce grown there is used in their two restaurants in Lahaina, I'O and Pacific O at 505 Front Street.
How about a visit to the "Surfing Goat Dairy" ? The Dairy produces over 42 different cheeses. They offer five different interactive tours as well as cheese tasting.
Ali'i Kula Lavender farm is also a fun place to experience breathtaking views while you walk in the lavender farm. It's a bit like experiencing the Mediterranean in the middle of the Pacific!
Stop in to Tedeschi Vineyards and taste some Maui wine, the Tasting Room is open daily from 10-5 p.m. All of these places are listed in almost all of the literature you can pick up at the airport or at various stores on the island or visit them on line for directions.
Finally, since I am a "foodie" as well as an artist, try Kula Lodge for lunch. It sits at 3200 ft. up the slopes of Haleakala in a beautiful garden setting. Good food at reasonable prices, they cook pizzas outside in their pizza ovens. They have a great market selling local products and a gift shop, and the Curtis Wilson Cost gallery is on the premises.
I've completed two more paintings so more on recent art work next time!

Upcountry Maui
The ocean and the beaches are wonderful but you miss a lot if you don't venture "upcountry". There are horse and cattle ranches in gorgeous scenery. Most of the vegetables not imported from the mainland are grown up in Kula and they are delicious. The cowboy town of Makawao is a delightful place to explore shops and restauarants. It looks like a town in the "old west". Shop at Alititudes and Hurricane for great womens clothes.
Watercolorist, Sherri Reeves, has her studio on the main street and there are several art galleries, one of the best is Viewpoints which has paintings from George Allen and Ronaldo Macedo.
Eat lunch at Hali'imaile ($$$$) or at Farm Fresh Bistro ($$) in a courtyard near Viewpoints. Excellent food at both places with fresh ingredients grown locally.
Take a drive "upcountry" on your next visit to Maui!
