As I sit here and write this, I think that last week at this time we were enjoying temperatures in the mid 80's and sunshine. We were watching the big waves (complete with surfers) at Sunset Beach on Oahu's North Shore. Now it's in the mid 50's, the wind is blowing, and the rain is falling! I did manage to get up on the roof today to remove the leaves. In another 2 or 3 weeks they should all be gone. The joy of trees. We did have a couple of good weather days this week, and I did manage to get about 3/4 of the motorhome waxed. With a little bit of luck, I will be able to finish it up on Sunday, then get the cover on so we'll be ready to go in February. I am pleasently surprised at how good it looks with a fresh wax job. It's 8 years old now, but it looks almost as good as new. We will have our friends from Tulsa (Ron & Diane) visiting in Arizona for a week in March to hang out with and take in some spring training baseball. We are all looking forward to that. I wasn't too happy with the World Series outcome, but there is some talk that Hideki Matsui could end up a Mariner next year. That could be interesting.
So for now there is not much going on. The next trip (Arizona) is all planned out, and no concrete decisions on "what to do next". We are looking at a week in New Mexico possibly late summer at the World Mark Resort in Taos. I think that we would both like to pull off another "big adventure" motorhome trip. We could incorporate New Mexico into that. We shall see. It's going to be a long, cold, wet winter with lots of time to plan!!
Until next time, one last ALOHA! Ernie

Getting back to reality is always such a let down. Does sound like you've been busy though. Getting rid of the leaves seems never ending, as soon as you finish, here they come again. I'm thinking waxing the motorhome would be a hugh task, could take a least a couple of six packs.
Its unseasonably warm here today (in the 70's)the wind is blowing pretty good(that will take care of some of the leaves anyway).
We're looking forward to our trip to Arizona, already surfing the web looking for lodging and such. I've been working on my baseball knowledge also. I must ask some dumb questions judging by the expressions on Ron's face. I actually watched most of the world series, bought a shirt and rooted for my team (I'm getting into this).
Matsui is a good player, did the Yankees proud but for the life of me I can't understand how you can play for an American team for what, 7 years and never learn the language.
inquisitively yours.....Diane
