Doesn't bother me (nice weather here in CA), but I'm sure you'll make a lot of people jealous!

Nice photo!

I put Ala Moana Blvd in my nav system, but it appears I am going to hit a flooded area before I get there.

Vacations end....but Florida will always be here....

It's really a shame that the best speed you can get out of your Vette in HI is 65, then you have to shut it down so you don't fall off the other end of the island.
Only kidding.
It is beautiful.

It's hard to tell if this is good or not so good? I mean how you end with this, "and wife." Hopefully it is all good.
