Maui Hawaii Celebrate Gay Marriage this Week
2012-01-06 16:08:00 Paradise is a strong word, and I don't use it lightly. But Maui, Hawaii is truly a paradise in every way. It has glorious warm weather all year, with just enough of a breeze from the trade winds to keep you feeling refreshed. The tropical greenery and colourful flowers are spectacular, and there's nothing better than the relaxing sound of the surf crashing on the beach as you drift off to sleep every night. Wouldn't you want to get married in Paradise?! A gay Oklahoma City couple is happy to be on Maui and among the first couples to be joined in a civil union after a state law allowing such unions went into effect last Sunday. "We are proud to be part of it," said 40-year-old Rich Tucker, a mortgage company owner, shortly before his Monday sunset ceremony with partner 37-year-old David Dobson, a Realtor. "We wanted to have the ceremony somewhere tropical. It's awesome to have accepting people that accept everyone. No one is segregated," Tucker said about Hawaii and...

2011-05-04 17:15:00 actor Christopher ShyerFirst, a quick word about "The Good Wife." Last night's episode had Christopher Shyer, who plays Marcus on "V" as a doctor who discriminates against patients who lead a "wild" lifestyle in their youth and moves a girl off the transplant list. That's a big legal no-no, and his hospital got sued by Lockhart-Gardner. A great show, and normally stoic Alecia Florrick finally had an emotional moment and broke down. Also a nice shot of CBS 2's Rob Johnson playing what else, a CBS Chicago news anchor. Maybe NBA MVP Derrick Rose will get some screen time on the show, as he was mentioned in a episode this season. (See how I worked the sports angle in?)Five-O...

2011-01-11 15:35:00 Alas, CBS pulled a great fake out over the weekend. Their promos for Five-O neglected to mention there wasn't a new episode of the Steve and Danno show last night. So after the BCS game, I turned my attention to the winter finale of one of the shows I can really relate to - "Men of A Certain Age." The show really cut close to home as Terry (Scott Bakula) decided to get a colonoscopy, and convinces his buddies to get one as well. They all venture to Palm Springs where they make a golf weekend out of the occasion. For anyone who has ever undergone the procedure, including myself, knows that you can't eat for 24 hours before, and...

Hawaii Golf Courses in Oahu and Maui
2010-06-15 18:33:00 One of my life-fulfilling wishes is to visit Hawaii, especially Oahu, where the entertainment value is high, the beaches and scenery are unparalleled and the golf is plenty. And so I was excited to be asked as a guest on The Golf Club Radio Show with Danielle Tucker, to chat about the 60th Jennie K Invitational, the condition of Mid Pacific Country Club and Hawaii Golf in general. As I googled and then clicked on the link to "Mid-Pac" Country Club, as it is called, you can't help but notice the beautiful scenery; crystal blue waters, mountains covered in light, fluffy clouds and sunsets that take your breath away. "Mid-Pac" is both "challenging and enjoyable" as stated on their website but, during our conversations with a few of the golfers prior to their respective rounds, I could see that the emphasis focused on "demanding". Questioning Jason Amoy, Superintendent of "Mid-Pac" and also a guest on the Show, led me to understand the amount of work needed to make the greens and t...

All twenty-three major domestic carriers and sixteen international carriers serve Oahu, so you can get here from just about anywhere.There are also direct flights from the mainland to Maui, Kauai, and Hawaii's Big Island, but for the most part, you may need to connect through Oahu to get to the neighbor islands.Staying in HawaiiFinding accommodations is easy in Hawaii.

Quick Trip to Hawaii
2009-09-22 23:21:00 I closed my eyes and visualised being a 16 year old again (visualising driving on the right side of the road), and we set off. Yan-Shih and I have just returned from a trip to Hawaii for Ian's wedding - and what a fun, fast-paced time we had! I left work a few minutes early on Thursday and went straight to the airport, where I met Yan-Shih, and we boarded our 6:00pm flight to Honolulu. The flight was slightly bumpy, and we tried to sleep. Our flight of choice was Jetstar, which was mediocre as always (imagine flying EasyJet for 10 hours), but we knew to plan ahead as much as possible. After arriving in Honolulu we quickly boarded the little bus to the other terminal, and boarded a second plane to Maui. A short island hop later and we landed in Kahului. Immediately after leaving the airport, and marveling at how tan everybody was, we hitched a ride with the Thrifty van to the rental car depot. Just as we arrived at the depot we glanced over and saw a tow truck with a totalle...
Lots of fun scuba diving in Kona Hawaii.....

Orange Cup Coral from Kona Hawaii....
2009-07-14 08:13:00 I did a dive last week at Pawai Bay out on the Kaiwi Point end. There's a bunch of cup coral on a large formation near the point and the current was screaming when we were down so the polyps were out bigtime.We had a huge southwest swell during the last half of June. I'd heard people mention it was one of the largest in decades but I hadn't thought much of it 'til this dive. Everything on the west end of the dive was as normal, but in one area of the site there was noticeable damage.... large lobe coral formations were sheared off and tossed out of place, often upside down. Wow. The area between Carousel and the Body Glove mooring had quite a bit of breakage. I'm wanting to check out the reef more inshore and to the south to see if it was damaged also. All of our sites that weren't directly in the path of the swell are fine. Quite interesting, it's amazing how much power a little surf has. later, Steve |
