  ...at home in the Islands, at home in the Islands, at home in the middle of the sea...

  So when you move around all the time you have many "homes," places that you live.  There's another "home" and that's the place your heart is, the place that you long to return to, the place where culture and heart converge...

  
  

  I've come home.  It's been two years since I've been back, and it's been 12 years since I've had a permanant address here but I felt it when the plane touched down and I got off and felt that warm, humid sea air.  Hawaii.  I didn't spend much time in Honolulu, came right over to Kaua'i, the place I started out so long ago, but the Island that i've lived least time on.  I love it here and dread returning...no need to think about that now, I'm going to drink this in.

  
  

  I am staying with some friends that I've known for 13 years, incredible.  Times are good.

  
  

  I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving.  Go shopping!

  
  

  Thanks for reading
