So, your tax dollars hard at work, I got to fly out to Hawaii for a few days to help set up a program at the Army base. We were forced to stay in a hotel that was right on the beach.
Day 1 - hanging out at the park on the beach.
We had dinner at our favorite restaurant - Duke's
One day I got out a little early so we went to the windward side of the island. It was very windy with a storm coming in - but so beautiful. We rented a kayak and paddled around the small islands. A lot of kayakers couldn't even make it past the surf - it was comical to see them try to paddle and "storm the beach" only to get flipped over. Andrea and I were tough and made it past the crashing waves on our first try.
This is a picture from or small island destination.
Lots of Kite Surfers out since it was so windy and choppy.
This small coral island was so awesome - it had little pools and mini beaches where the surf would come in and fill up the cove.
Even a stormy, rainy day is wonderful out there.
Andrea's only goal while we were in Hawaii was to perpetrate a new cool Facebook picture. I think this is it.
After work one day we drove out to visit my brother Aaron who is at BYU-Hawaii. He was originally at Ricks, but spent a semester in Hawaii and decided to stay. We saw his apartment which has enough room for 4 beds and 4 surfboards and nothing else. He is having a great time. We went out to dinner and stopped to take some pictures on the way home.
So which one spends his time at the beach and which one spends his time in Seattle?
... and a picture of my happy place.

Andrea had it rough while i was working.

Yes - I am in a shirt and tie on the beach in Hawaii. It was a work trip for me - i actually was doing work and going to meetings - i just lacked the foresight to pack a change of clothes for the evening.
So which one spends his time at the beach and which one spends his time in Seattle?

Let us discuss my jealousy, even if you do have a shirt and tie on Michael..........I am mild to moderately jealous.
