Perhaps you haven’t noticed but it’s been a while since last post. no excuses although I can think of a whole bunch. Used to post regularly while we were traveling around full time in the RV but since we moved into house, it has been busy.
Oh, you say, “thought you were retired?” Riiiigggghhhhtttt. “Retirement” means you have, or least you think you have, a little more say about how you spend your time. Could be true unless people think that, since you are retired, you have lotsa time to spend on their projects….
So we took a little time away to celebrate our 20th anniversary. Time flies.We flew to Maui. So here we are in “paradise” which translates to wonderful temperatures, tee shirts, shorts, island time, no worries. Everyone has their picture of what it’s like. It is pretty neat in some ways.
We have enjoyed our hikes and visit to Haleakala National park, the walks and morning swims on the beach, the temperatures, and exploring. But we prefer a more secluded quiet areas less touristy. Guess that is what we have gotten used to over the years. It’s always fun to people watch and there are all forms. At least everyone we have seen/met are pretty relaxed here.
We are ready for the comforts of home tho.
- Research your accommodations more carefully if comfort is important.
- Move around more often if exploring is important.
- Pack less stuff
- Be open to what is next rather than fixed while traveling
Wow! Calling CQ at Haleakala Summit! Two meters, right? All you need is some Tropospheric Ducting to hit the mainland! http://dxinfocentre.com/tropo_wam.html Maui is a very nice place to hang out and get away from all those pesky projects, eh?

Yeah. Pretty great over there. The temps are so perfect. Not much regulation needed whereas over here we are almost always dealing with temperature management of some form. Just trying to get back into radio stuff. 2 meters is all the small guy does. we now have a bigger 100w transceiver here at village. ping me by email if you want to try to connect.
