Aloha, Honolulu

We were on O'ahu last week, visiting friends and family and swimming and walking and eating 'ono grinds. I'll get to the "real" photos in a few days, but let's enjoy some panoramic eye candy first.

My path is dark, but I see something ahead

Believe

I think this is my only resolution for this year, as hard as it is to make out sometimes.
