Oh no, I absolutely LOVED Hawaii! I swore I was going to die there, but no,
I met my husband and had to move to Florida to be with him. Florida is
buggy, flat, dismal, stormy, weedy, swampy and redneck-ish. The town I
moved to is Cowtown; there is no theater, no decent restaurants, no seafood.
There are no jobs here in my field. The closest town is Tampa Bay and
that's about an hour away.

I miss my flowers, my mountains, my ocean, my friends, the tradewinds, the
food, the fragrance of the air. I miss walks on the beach. I miss hearing
the pidgin language, the Hawaiian music, the culture.

Far cry from Redneck Florida. Sigh.
