We’re a couple days into our trip and finally over our jet lag and the time change (four hours earlier than home) though Shea and I still find ourselves going to bed around 8pm (midnight at home) and getting up at 4am (8am at home) so far. We’re on Kauai’s east side so that’s okay […]
Here’s a list, roughly from most to least useful, of the sites, apps and other online resources I used in researching our trip to Hawaii. The links I’ve included are mostly to info about Kauai since that’s our first stop but most of these searches were repeated for Maui info. YouTube – I always think […]
Other than those opening lines about it being “cold, cold, cold” (today was +5), I think this is my theme song for the next couple weeks. Oh, and there’s also the line about “You’re caught up in the Internet/You think it’s such a great asset/But you’re wrong, wrong, wrong.” Not sure how much I’ll be […]

No shit. People not working a lot of extra hours makes a better work-life balance? No shit. Low child poverty makes for […]
…this is where I’ll be! (And with the waterproof case we got for my iPhone from Santa, this could very well be me taking this exact video! Of course, it was +6 in Regina today and a high of +19 (!) in Maple Creek, SK so, with Lihue Kauai coming in at +23, my timing […]
Every year on December 31, I do a “Year End Memes” post which has two parts – the first answers a bunch of questions about the past year. The second provides an overview of my year via the first lines of each month’s blog post during the past twelve months. Last year, I split them […]
Feeling like I’ve exhausted every web site, guidebook and YouTube clip in existence, I find myself paging through the online weekly flyer for a Kauai-based supermarket, wondering if the prices are really as bad as they say (not really) and thinking about some of the different meals we’ll be able to make in our condo […]
