Oh the places you'll go...

And the people you'll meet... did you ever read that Dr. Seuss book?  I was given it as a gift when I graduated from High School.... my Pre-School teacher, who is a friend of my family, hosted a nice little graduation party for all of my old, old friends that I was in Pre-School with and gave us all that book... at any rate... the people I've met... one thing I love about travelling is all the interesting people I've met... just a few examples of folks that I've met on my travels the last month...

A technical supervisor for PG&E

An operations director for PG&E

A vice-president for PG&E

A General Contractor.

4 Bikers on their way back from a Harley Road Rally... (see above)

A Traveling Nurse

A 2nd AD in the film industry (and former Ringling Brothers, Barnum & Baily Circus Clown)

3 dudes I flew with in Japan that still live there...

A guy with a Ph. D. in Chemistry who teaches at a community college here in Honolulu

A Physician for the UH Football Team

An Officer in the NOAA Corps... (never even knew that service had 'officers' who wear the same uniform as the US Navy)

An On-Air News Reporter for the local CBS affiliate here in Honolulu

The Director of a Women's Health Clinic in Monterey, CA

The Principal of a Montessori School

A Rocket Scientist  (seriously... A Rocket Scientist...)

An Ornithologist... (who incidentally sat in the same chair as the Rocket Scientist in the Delta Crown Room in Honolulu)

These are just the ones that I can remember... anyway- I love meeting new people... and Hawaii is a great place to do it...

Well- heading back home in a few hours... it's going to be a marathon of a trip, but looking forward to actually getting back to work again.  Sort of... actually, not really, but oh well.  Vacation has been fun.  I've met some incredible people...

Cheers and Aloha...
