My apologies Brian. I only wish I were "Out there somewhere". I'm sincerely sorry to have left everyone hanging like that and I have no excuse. We are OK, though a bit frazzled
As you may know, I had planned to retire this year and set sail the first week of June for Victoria and the Rendezvous. When I went to my boss in April to tell him my plans he pravailed upon me to postpone my retirement for a few years. I planned to take a few weeks vacation and fly to the Rendezvous but unexpected events at the last minute forced me to cancel my vacation and have kept me traveling and working long hours ever since. I just returned from a six-day trip and have only five days in the office before I have to leave for Florida for ten days on business. Somehow, between now and the 12th I have to find time to go to Kauai and Maui for a day each and try to catch up with work here in Honolulu. As the company "Smoke Jumper" I have been kept very busy flying around and putting out brush fires and Laura has been hired as a consultant to help. At least we are doing most of the traveling together.
Thanks for your concern. I'll fill everyone in as soon as I get a breather.
Aloha,
Chuck
