1. Hawaii does not have I-15. (I recognize it has its own freeways and highways that have lots of traffic, but I will trade the road to Hana for I-15 any day. The road to Hana ends at Hana. I-15 ends at... well, technically, San Diego. But for me on a daily basis it ends at work.)
2. Hawaii has beautiful tropical beaches. (It turns out that this is a commodity that Utah is greatly lacking in.)
3. One week from this moment I will be on a plane that will land in Hawaii.
I made the following picture to commemorate the joy. I drew it on a coworker's whiteboard when he was one week from leaving for Hawaii. But now it applies to me. You may notice it doesn't look like a whiteboard. The picture didn't have a lot of contrast so I helped it out in photoshop.

4. Hawaii has delicious fresh fruits of many shapes and sizes.
5. Hawaii has Ted's Bakery
 |
| The macadamia nut cream pie is one of life's greatest joys. |
6. Did I mention I'll be in Hawaii super soon?
7. Hawaii has beautiful scenery
8. Hawaii has Haleakala
 |
| This image is totally stolen from gohawaii.com but I'm really excited to stand on top of Haleakala (a really big mountain/volcano) and watch the sunrise |
9. Ya, so I'm totally going to Hawaii.
10. Hawaii has super sweet snorkeling
I hope that these fun facts have helped to educate you. I will probably have more things to share about Hawaii once I'm there. (I don't know if I mentioned I'm going to Hawaii soon.)

| If I look this good in snorkeling gear in my kitchen, imagine how good I look in the ocean. |

Do you think pies from Ted's bakery would make it back on the plane? Yum! Have such a good trip!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure. I think I'll carry them home in my belly. That's probably the safest place.
DeleteI bought my snorkeling gear today! I am so ready!!!
ReplyDelete(well-except for all the stuff I have to get done first!)
Wait, are you going to Hawaii? I'm confused. Why would you go to hawaii without me? I just don't get it. Will you explain it to me?
ReplyDeleteJared, I was gonna invite you but I heard you were in a fight with Hawaii.
DeleteHawaii has a couple interstate highways, even though they don't go inter-state...heck, they're not even really intra-state. More like intra-island. If you call them interstate, you get federal funding or something dumb like that.
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited!
ReplyDeleteWhy have I never heard of a macadamia nut cream pie before today?!
ReplyDeleteI don't know. But I can assure you, it's something you want to know about.
