We made it to another Aloha Friday. It looks to be a great weekend. Only one more Aloha Friday until retirement. Since I am going to Kauai on Monday, this week's picture should look familiar to all travelers to Kauai. Have an awesome Aloha Friday everyone.

I wish I were there! Big snowstorm here in the Chicago area, and I didn't clean off my van from the snow earlier this week. :mad:

Happy Aloha Friday. Jeff is it really that beautiful in Hawaii. Your photos are just breath taking.


Linsj, I'm sending you all the snow and freezing temperatures from Virginia. LOL

I have been getting messaged from Wisconsin friends and they are messaging about the butter cold. I have friends from Chicago, I grew up there, and they are talking about the snow. It's rough either way.

Have a trip planned so you have something to look forward to.

Yes, sometimes the pictures don't even do it justice. The sunsets are like that for sure.

But, like every place, there are some areas that are less than ideal. :D

Only one more Aloha Friday, Jeff. Then every day is a weekend. I only keep a watch around to tell what day of the month it is and basically ignore the day of the week- or even the time unless we're away on vacation.

Enjoy your last work week next week. This is what the last 30some years have boiled down to. May the next 30 be at least as good!

Jim

My wife was trying to tell me that she can't remember the days and she thought it had to do with her Hydrocephalus. I told her probably not, I hear that is common with retirees. :D

I'll be back at Hilton Hawaiian Village in March. Wanted to go to another island, but I still refuse to pay the outrageous rental car price. I more than got my money's worth out of the $6 per month senior bus pass last time, plus walked a LOT.

I sure don't envy my relatives in Minnesota, where it was 38 below recently in my parents' home town. It isn't Aloha Friday where I live, but at 70 degrees it's pretty darn close!

And yes, you'll find yourself forgetting what day it is. Often. I'll bet especially so on Molokai.

Yes, walking here reminds me of Las Vegas. Everything seems close until you start walking. :D

Glad you have a trip planned and it's even when the weather can still be nasty back home. :thumbup:

I even celebrated Aloha Friday when I lived in Wisconsin so it can be celebrated everywhere. It's a state of mind. :D

I have been wearing Aloha Shirts to work on Fridays for almost 20 years now.

I'll be looking forward to forgetting what day it is. :ROFLMAO:

Steve wore Aloha shirts to work on Fridays. He called them "I wish I was there" shirts.

It sure is! I was speaking of it only from a weather POV. Because as a state of mind, when you're retired, every day is Aloha Friday! :cool:

First Aloha Friday in February and last day at work. The packing begins.

This week's picture may bring back some memories for some who have stayed on Kauai at the Pono Kai. This one is from one of the Lanai's. Happy Aloha Friday everyone!!!

When was that concrete path installed ? We stayed at Islander on The Beach in 2001 and I don't remember it then, maybe it doesn't go that far.

No, it doesn't go that far. They want to make it longer but it never seems to happen.

Jeff, forgive the old man, there is a five hours difference between the time in Hawaii and the East Coast of the United Ststes.

It is 3:09 PM in Hawaii.

Wishing you your very First Aloha Saturday after your retiremen.

Wow, I overslept today and I'm late with everything.

So it's a beautiful day lots of packing and cleaning to do yet but it looks to be a great weekend.

This week's picture comes from the south shore of Molokai. This is from when I was shopping for condos and I was staying at Molokai Shores.

Happy Aloha Friday everyone!!

Happy Aloha Friday,
Jeff, you have earn the right to oversleep on your first Friday in Retirement.
Jeff, you may not know this but your body and mind are tired. I’m speaking from experience.…OK.…Now you must learn how to Relax or Chill as this young generation caused it.
LOL.

A little late again today. My wife had to get her monthly shot and we had to get to the post office so of course we had to stop for lunch.

Anyway, it's Aloha Friday time again and it looks to be a beautiful day and weekend.
This week's picture is from the North shore of Molokai at the Kalaupapa lookout. Have a great weekend everyone.
