I have a lot of free time this summer; it's given me time to look back through old photos and think about the ups and downs I've experienced since moving to this lovely, godforsaken, sunny, rainy, lovely, disorganized island. I don't know where we will be this time next year, but it is likely to be someplace much colder than this, so I'm enjoying the weather while I can. A lot can change in two years. Here's what's happened to the Winskyes:

Lots of good stuff and lots of good friends. Mahalo to our Hawaii ohana for being there for us during all this change. So far, it's been a memorable experience! To be continued...
