A whole raft of thoughts
While Sue is heads-down planning her trip to London, I have turned my eye to the whitewater rafting portion of our trip to the Southwest. Who knew that doing an overnight whitewater rafting trip would require a 13-page preparatory document? I've seen articles in Scientific American less detailed than this. The only thing that seems …
Planning on My Own
This London trip with my nephew is going to be great; I know it. It's just so different once again planning on my own. I've gotten used to having Steven to leap on my crazy ideas and take them to the next step (I've never met a crazy idea that couldn't be crazier...oh yeah...it is …
Grandiose Plans
While Sue is getting ready for her trip to London, I will be gearing up for our next journey – a road trip to the Grand Canyon & then whitewater rafting in Utah. We had scheduled this trip before we won the one to Hawaii; we don’t usually have two trips in consecutive months, just …

We’ll Take It Easy On Travel Day
Tuesday was saying goodbye to Maui and aloha to Honolulu day. We had an exhausting 25-minute flight (We arrive an hour and 30 minutes before the flight to drop off the car and check the bags...so all in the wait at the airport was 3 x the flight time) after deciding we liked Colleen's so much …
Today we are going to sit by the pool
At least we were going to sit by the pool right after I had a surfing lesson. I signed up for a 10am lesson through Surf & Yoga in Kihei...about 10 mins away...2 hour lesson, then right to the pool. The lesson was great! Eddie, my instructor, had me up after only about 10 minutes …
