Rainy Days

I almost never complain about the rain, but after a few days of glorious, dreary weather I actually find myself missing Hawaii! I love the ocean and in 2010 I got to see the Pacific for the very first time in the best possible way, on an island in the middle of nowhere. Have you ever lived through something and then realize that you appreciate it more after the excitement of it is all over? I guess that is the effect Hawaii had on me. I think I was so overwhelmed that I'm just now starting to realize how great it was. I know I've shared pictures before, but after my hard drive crashed and I thought I lost everything, I am so happy to see that I still have pictures of that special time on Maui. It was amazing. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to make myself a salmon bagel soon to get that warm and fuzzy, Hawaii feeling back.

I hope these pictures make your rainy day better!
