Hey Blog Readers!

I am playing with some new fund-raising tools for work. Plus the Beautiful Big island is trying to make beaches tobacco-free. I'm helping them to try to get some funds for simple things like signs, buttons and covering gas to get people to the county council meetings.

Every penny counts and of course it is tax deductible so make a contribution today!

February Rain

January was an insane month.

Dan and I both felt like we were being punished for taking a long sabbatical....we've been working nights and weekends and doing not much else other than work, eat and sleep.

Plus, we're dismayed by the violence in Kenya.
A lot of the turmoil and killings are in towns that we spent a lot of time in. We've tried to get in touch with a number of people to see if they are ok, but so far have only heard that one family is all right.

On a happy note. We're getting a new housemate at the end of February. Her name is Sarah and she's an engineer who's moving out from San Fransisco to open a new branch of her company in Honolulu.
