Hawaii

---

Well we are on our way back to Chicago. We left this morning from LA and plan 3 hard days of driving.
We returned from Honolulu last night. We had a wonderful time at Adam's graduation from the Fire Academy and we were able to celebrate the next night with him and his friends from the dive shop.
He was one of a class of 24. And for the first time in anyone's memory all 24 graduated.
We are so proud of him and his accomplishments. He began work on Monday and we were able to stay until he got home after his first 24 hrs shift to hear all about it. Hawaiians can sleep better now knowing he is on duty.
Adam and Jessica also took us whale watching on Sunday and we saw lots of whales. Another item to check off the bucket list.
We can't thank our friends Nancy and Steve enough for their hospitality before and after our flights to Honolulu. They are always right there for us to be sure we get to and from LAX.

Congartulations to Adam
I'm real Happy to hear about Adam. Drive safely back to Chicago. Have you made any decision on were you might end up out West? Rich

Please drive carefully and let us know when you get back to the area.(I cannot say home!) We will have you out for lunch or dinner, whatever you prefer. Loved the photo of you celebrating Adam's achievement. Steven won his aldermanic re-election on Tuesday. He worked so long and hard during his campaign. Now he's primed for a mayoral or county board run in the future! Nancy would not love that! See ya! MW

Duh Rose
We enjoyed spending so much time with you this year on your trip to the Westcoast. We usually spend one night and than we are both off to do something else. After more than 35 years, we still enjoy each others company like we did when we first met. Looking forward to you living closer and by next year we will have more time also to do it more often. "You're the Best"
