The following entries will be saturated with photos of beautiful landscape, epic adventures, and incredible food. Our trip to the Big Island definitely became a core memory, and while traveling all together can be trying at times, it became some of my favorite days with my favorite people, who are not in the same place often enough. 

Also, not enough "thank yous" to give to Mom and Dad for making this trip possible. And, while I know Dad always says "it comes from the same pot", we are so grateful to share this experience and celebrate such a long love.  Cheers to 50 1/2 years! There's not a word to describe how much we love you.
