Amazing vista overlooking east O’ahu and Rabbit Island.

Hawaii is the jam.

2011 was bananas. A roller coaster to end all coasters. 2012 is going to be equally wild, but I’m pressing pause on life for a month to go far, far away with my wife and enjoy a number of precious moments that aren’t promised to any of us. Even in all of my jaunting, I haven’t taken more than 24 straight hours off of the internet since I got into this industry over five years ago. Hopefully I can now. If I don’t respond immediately to your tweet, poke, email or call in the next few weeks, I assure you I’m not ignoring you. You can feel free to say hello IRL if you’re in O’ahu, Tahiti, Fiji, Samoa or American Samoa soon.

Let me know if something cool happens. Mahalo and fa’afetai.
