the reason

Home again...
well this trip deserves a good blogging. I arrived back in maui yesterday afternoon, stayed awake for about two hours before crashing for the next 16 hours uninterrupted. I awoke today to lock my keys in my running car (which was rapidly running out of gas) After about an hour and a half of extremely frustrated attempts to break in with three different coat hangers... i got a neighbor to call the fire dept. down the street (why? because they are good citizens who wont charge you 70 bucks for 30 sec. of labor) Within 5 min. they came, all friendly and fire-fightery, & had me back in my car. Although, when i asked if they did this sort of thing quite often... they reminded me that yes they do... however usually its for emergency situations like when a small child is locked inside. I felt cheap. and like i maybe should have thrown a cat into a tree to make them feel like they had used their time wisely.

lesson learned... fire-fighters are much more useful than just being in calendars.. (teehee)

Well... here is a sampling of photos to tell the tale of my visit home and beyond!
