Mighty Good.

As I said in the previous post, our get away was great. If you've never met my husband, you're missing out...he is one of a kind. While he knows how to work hard, I love the fact that he can play hard. Here are a couple shots from our trip.



One of my favorite moments was when I met my Nana's twin (Nana would be my 4'7" Portuguese grandma with a thick Boston accent...) Except this lady was Italian. She was a hoot. One day on the beach as we frolicked in the autumn mist in Hanalei bay (home of Puff the Magic Dragon) we were right next to the sweetest group of women ranging from about 65-85. They were all in bathing suits, building sandcastles, laughing...really living it up. At one point we overheard one lady exclaiming to another that she was 80 and still as horny as ever. AHHHHH...please someone wash my brain, remove the mental images!!!! But then I laughed and told MD, "Try not to be too grossed out, if you're still alive, you'll be wanting me to say that, won't you?"

Ok, back to my Nana's twin...She walks over and we smile. One of us casually says, "You guys sure look like you know how to have a good time." To which she responds, "Oh face it, you know we look like a bunch of escapees from the Convalescent Home." She was a smart aleck, hard core. I was cracking up at her comments and loved her snappy comebacks. We chatted for a minute and then supplied her with a bottle cap to use as the "eye" in her sand swordfish. We all took pride later as she received a ribbon and placed first or second in their little contest. She told us they were all kindred spirits who lived all over the world and met up once a year or so to really live it up together.



How cool is that? At any rate, I was inspired to live more, laugh more - and really enjoy life more.
