Days like this make me very jealous of my east coast
colleagues. It’s 3:30pm for them and the holiday
weekend has all but started. But for me,
I just ate breakfast and brushed my teeth.
It’s probably best, actually, that I just started my day. Because I have a good bit of organizing to do
before we catch our 8am flight in the morning to the Big Island. We settled on activities, and I’m going to
need quite a variety of extreme weather wear.
Friday evening we’re going on a star-gazing tour that’s so high up, we
had to provide our parka sizes. Saturday
morning we’re going scuba diving. And Sunday
we’re hiking Volcanoes
National Park in the
hopes of seeing some red hot lava. Since
we’ll be busy getting ready to go, I hoped we could eat leftovers for
dinner tonight. But the salmon and
eggplant curry Lloyd made yesterday didn’t quite make it through the
night. We ate it all up because it was
so flavorful.

Happy 4th of July!
