Matsumoto's Shaved Ice is frickin' sweet! I looooove it. Always a long line, though.

Sunday afternoon, my wife and two stepkids will step off the plane in Honolulu all wearing SMU gear. Their idea.

I'm hoping our family trip this Xmas will be to Hawaii. The Mauna Kea on the Big Island is my favorite resort there. It was damaged by a hurricane and is the process of rebuilding, but should be better than ever when it reopens. It is very close to Kona and other small towns like Hawi.

Looks like they've found a unique way to get funds for the improvements to their athletic facilities. ;)
