I find it kind of funny that days just like this instantly remind me of being in Hawaii. Dwight and I had the great good fortune to visit not once, but twice, about 7 years ago. It always strikes me as a bit humorous that a warm, cloudy, possibly rainy, most certainly damp day is what takes me back. You'd think it would a bright, hot, sunny day. But you see, we visited in December and January, the rainy months. So days like to today are what winter looks like in Hawaii. Which is precisely why I want to live there NOW and most definitely want to retire there someday sooner than later.
I would like to go back to Hawaii when it's not the rainy season, but for now, I really like that I can look on a day like today and smile, breathing deeply, remembering paradise as I experienced it, in turn having a bit of here, now.
I don't have a scanner at home and our trips were pre-digital camera days, so I had to take pictures of pictures.

This was a typical scene from the car. Just beautiful.

A sunny day, but very windy. This is the North Shore of Oahu – surfing paradise.

Maui. We were heading out to Molokini Crater to snorkel.
