Back from Hawaii. Sadly, no noticeable tan but I'm happy to report that I didn't get burned.

Just a few pictures:

Hiking up to the lighthouse. The color of the water is amazing.


Hiking near Ashley's house. Those leaves created this curtain. Can't really tell, but it was cool to walk through it.


Same trail. That tree was doing some gnarly things.


Lookout at Kauai


Hiking along the Napali Coast in Kauai


Hiking in Waimea Canyon in Kauai


I know some of you guys might think I'm crazy for going on these hikes on my vacation. But I was able to see things that I wouldn't otherwise be able to see. (I know, I know, someone mentioned a helicopter ride... so I guess it is possible). What I'm trying to say is, totally worth it. :)

Been in Hawaii since Monday. The weather has been great. So far.. one of the favorite things I've done?

Ocean kayaking

(and then getting shaved ice after) :)

The color of the water is amazing. And there's nothing more exciting/exhilarating than reaching the island after MULTIPLE close calls with waves breaking. Seriously, I thought we were going to flip over more than once.

I'm off to Kauai this weekend. Yay!

I went to the Giants game yesterday. Sadly, I didn't stay til the 11th to watch them win. You don't understand. It was F-R-E-E-Z-I-N-G.

Anyway, I have a little theory that their wins are directly correlated to my financial support of the team. The day of their first win? I went to the dugout store and purchased a jacket. Yesterday's win? I purchased additional game tickets for next week. Coincidence? I think not.

The thing is, of course I want my team to win. But I don't have that kind of $$. Also, I don't know if my 'purchase = win' theory has a $ limit. I'm thinking I might just buy a pin when I go to next week's game. A part of me is a little scared I might end up with one of these by mid-season:



And you know what that means... a fanny pack, a rolling bag containing a seat cushion and game scorecard is not far behind.

Giants fans, start sending me $.
