HIATUS
To our friends and family.

Sorry I have neglected to post for a long time. There are a couple of reasons: First, our primary computer broke down earlier this year and we are yet to replace it. In the meantime we are making do with a very old desktop PC which is simply way too slow and unreliable to post pictures on blogger. The other reason is I have been using more of Facebook.com to get in touch with friends and family. Who knows? I may end up just using Facebook and dropping this blog, but I have not made that decision yet. Maybe when we buy a better PC next year, I will be posting more photos here.

Anyway, the fact I have not posted does not mean we have not been having fun. We had Diana visit for the summer, Laura visited back in August too, then Diana came back for another visit last week. We have been hiking and camping a couple of times. We went to the UH Pig-Out on Oahu in June and stayed with our friends Andy and Leyla. Our friends Kathrin visited us for Thanksgiving and we had a big party here. We also went to Hulopoe Beach in Lanai a couple of times.

We are now getting ready to travel for the Holidays, to visit Gwen's family in Illinois and my family in Puerto Rico.

And yes, Laura has announced she and her boyfriend Joe are getting married next June in Columbus! Right after they graduate from Ohio State and from the Air Force Academy, respectively.

Aloha and See you soon, either here or on Facebook.
