Perpetual Summer
Every morning around 6:30am I eye the thermostat in the car. It somberly, but consistently, states 78 degrees, which later develops into 87-88 degrees by late afternoon. Perfect weather--right? Well, yes. The sky is always blue, give or take an occasional cloud dropping a light rain shower, and a breeze often accompanies me throughout the day. The humidity is a bit much for me at times, but a decent fan or a ride in an air-conditioned car takes care of those sorrows, but what is really starting to get to me is the fact that the weather does NOT change. It's September. I keep looking around for signs of fall, but alas, autumn is not to be found in Hawaii. I miss pulling out the long sleeves and light jackets. I long for a pair of socks higher than anklets. Oh to see the leaves change colors. I am missing out. I feel sad. I'll just have to go swim with some more turtles and find a way to properly deal with my perpetual summer.
Happy Fall Y'all!

Wow, Tim is not looking significantly shorter than his Dad in this photo. I miss you Amy! I'm sure I'd miss the changing weather if I was there too, but I wasn't loving the cooler temps the other day when I forgot a jacket. It's nice once you are in bed under a comforter! Brr!!!
Well I have to say I am jealous... more than the normal person... we looked at a job on Kauai, and now being here in Utah I am so wishing I was out there...You will have to email me and update! Where did you move too, and how long will you be living out there? We Love Loved Kauai...if you get a chance to fly over there Poipu was AMAZING! Well really the whole island was amazing, but that was our favorite place, the road there is so pretty there is a line of trees on either side it is beyond beautiful!
Don't take this the wrong way, but I am having a hard time feeling sorry for you, esp looking at that photo! You guys all look great!!
