Vacation




In Hawaii - the skies were blue, the hills were lush and green, the ocean waves were mild, and the sun was warm and inviting.


In Hawaii - the pineapple was succulent, the fish was fresh, the meals were sumptuous, and the Blue Hawaii cocktails were quenching (and intoxicating!).


In Hawaii - the Arizona Memorial was tearfully impactful, the whales were showing their fins, the shopping was fun (and maybe just a little excessive), and the luau was a spectacular sunset show.


In Hawaii - Christmas was spiritual, Christmas was presents, Christmas was an impromptu barbecue, Christmas was family.


In Hawaii - Bruce made us laugh (and sometimes cringe), Taryn and Ian made us proud, the "boys" (Bradley, Blake and Beau) made us admire their daring, Warren made us feel spoiled, and Lisa made us feel special and loved.


In Hawaii - I forgot, for eight glorious days, that I had cancer. Now THAT is a vacation.



Blessings and Love to All.
