I Miss Hawaii

I miss Hawaii.


I miss BLUE skies and WHITE sands and the protective cove I used to swim in for fun. I miss knowing everyone in my church. I miss diversity in action. I mean you can talk a good talk but in Hawaii for the most part people have made it work. Of course these are just memories. I have no idea what is going on now.


I miss my old job and friends at work. It had its critical moments but the pace was slower sometimes maddenly. I know everything has changed. They were moving and had a new boss, so things would not be the same.


I guess what has brought these memories up is that I was thinking of going to my local beach. It doesn't have white sands,blue skies or protective coves. In fact the rip currents makes a terrible swimmer like myself sit on the beach. Not that I would consider throwing on a swimsuit in public at my now grand size.


This beach is more touristy than my old one. Just this year, they are charging for parking. A walk on the beach will now impact my budget. Sigh
