Hawaii!!








We are here in Hawaii. I can't hardly believe it. We really haven't had even spring yet in Wyoming, so this is realy wonderful. We arrived on Monday, June 2nd. Just coming off the plane and feeling the warm moist tropical air felt like heaven. Lynette was there to meet us with real flower leas and then when we got out in the parking lot she said I HAD TO drive the BMW convertible home because she had both cars at the airport. Can you start off a vacation any better then that!

We have been having a wonderful relaxing time. We did most of the tourist things last time, so this time is a lot more laid back. We had to go to a luie which was wonderful and to a magic show which was great. One day we took a drive along the North shore(I think) to get some banana bread. The road was about like the Big Horns were 40 years age or maybe worse. It was narrow, windy though not switchbacks,mostly one lane and right on the edge of the cliffs next to the ocean. Lynette is a good driver so I enjoyed the view and was glad I was not driving.The bread was good, by the way!

My big accomplishment for the trip is the fact that I actualy got in the ocean and went snorkeling! For a person who is not comfortable at all in water(if I can't touch the bottom I panic)this was really big. It took me a few tries before I was able to do, but it was great. We have been twice and plan to go again in the morning.What fun!

That photo of Dad swimming looks like he's really enjoying it. He's thinking, "How did I let them talk me into this?"
