Hawaii brought warm sun, clear water, stellar waves and a welcome reprieve from a never-ending Seattle winter. Our friend CK supplied buddy-passes for our Oahu trip, March 1st to March 8th, and we were able to get on standby to Oahu with no problems. Returning was a different story but well worth the extra two nights and one full day of surfing that we endured. This was a great trip, and we will be back sometime in the future.

Since my days in college when I read Plato's Analogy of the Cave, I've been a disciple of Socrates and attempted to live by his motto: "The unexamined Life is not worth Living". This philosophy has moved me through a spectrum of scientific and spiritual interests, two topics most believe are at odds, but for me a paradox worth examining. The bounty of natural beauty, human pleasures, diversity in people & ideas, music, sports, last but not least travel, all make this journey worth living. I am a hippie traveler looking for truth wherever that may lead...and so the story continues.
