  "What if I come to Hawaii for sun and sand and it rains the whole time, did I waste the trip?"  It won’t and you didn’t.  Rain in Hawaii takes many forms.  Right now, the wind is blowing and rain is falling but the sun is shining.  It’s not cold outside, just wet.  The photo is of rain during a picnic at ...

• Aloha Shirts in Hawaii

  
  Hawaii Vacation Blog - Hawaii Travel Guide, Hawaii News — Authority: 118
   "What do you call Hawaiian shirts in Hawaii?" asked a recent joke on Twitter.  "Shirts!"  Wrong, on two counts.  First, "Hawaiian" refers to a particular ethnic identity, not to all residents of the state, so that is incorrect when applied to a style of shirt by anyone.  Second, we do have a term for the ...

  Twissted Swisster — Authority: 110
  A couple of weeks back when we were in Paris we bought a couple of old antique surveyors tripods with the intention of converting them into standing floor lamps. At the time I figured this would be pretty easy to do. I would just run to the hardware store, but a couple of light sockets and cords and wire myself up a ...

  Hawaii Vacation Blog - Hawaii Travel Guide, Hawaii News — Authority: 118
  At one point, my family lived on a small farm-ette which included chickens.  We had them for the fresh eggs and, occasionally, for the chicken soup.  I hated those chickens.  I disliked feeding them, gathering the eggs, and most especially, cleaning the coop. HOWEVER, I love chickens in Hawaii.  Why?  Well, they ...

• More Time in Hawaii

  
  Hawaii Vacation Blog - Hawaii Travel Guide, Hawaii News — Authority: 118
  Last week, I wrote that clocks in Hawaii would not "fall back" over the weekend, as Daylight Savings time is not observed in this state.   One reader Tweeted to let me know that Hawaii had experimented with a time change back in the 1930’s, according to his family stories.   Intrigued, I did some quick internet ...

  Tales of life with a girl on the go — Authority: 108
  I have to apologize to the Five Man Electrical Band for misusing their lyrics for Signs, Signs but I needed a theme song for Sunday and this is as close as I could get.  I started my day in the line up to get a wristband that would entitle Reid to an H1N1 shot. I joined the queue at 6:03 but wasn’t one on the ...

  @ Home in the World — Authority: 110
    Theres nothing like the smell of bacon and coffee when you come inside from the cold just after sun up. Though its early, it seems as if half the town is already there, tucking into their eggs and toast. The waitress, and old Al behind the counter, know you by name and probably know what youll have, though ...

• Hawaii Clocks Stay Put

  
  Hawaii Vacation Blog - Hawaii Travel Guide, Hawaii News — Authority: 118
  This is just before sunrise from my bus stop at 6 am today.  It will look pretty much the same on Monday.  Unlike most other states (and European countries), Hawaii does not observe Daylight Saving Time – there is no “fall back” this weekend and no “spring forward” in March.  When it was 6 am at my bus ...

• Sand Circles on Hawaii Beach

  
  Hawaii Vacation Blog - Hawaii Travel Guide, Hawaii News — Authority: 118
  This intriguing sand circle was on the beach last weekend.  Not exactly like crop circles, I’m sure aliens were not involved.  However it looks like a game, rather than the toy bucket sand castles usually left behind.  Although the creator was long gone, no one had yet disturbed it. The beach was quiet during my ...

  Autumn has a different smell in some places:  the scent of dried leaves or pine, the crisp feel of breathing cold air.  In Hawaii, it smells like flowers.  The flowers that adorn trees, bushes and hedges are still in full bloom, sending out their wonderful aromas.   I pass by a hedge with these very small white ...
