  • Hello,from Sunny Phoenix Arizona

    Hello to all! I joined this board because I love all things Hawaii and I've never even been there! My wife and I will be married 35 years on Feb. 26th 2007 and we would like to go to Hawaii!

    I fell in love with Hawaii when I first saw Hawaii Five-0 back in 1968. I heard that show did so much to bring people over to the islands. Maybe that was a bad thing for all of you who live there! But it was love at first site for me!

    I'm still a huge Five-0 fan! I know there is someone on the board who's uncle was Zulu on the show and he doesn't have a lot of love for Jack Lord. I actually would like to talk with him because I know I have heard a lot of stories about how Jack tended to treat the locals. There are message boards out there that don't want to hear anything bad about Jack Lord.
    I also joined this board so I can learn more about the islands from the the people who live there!The customs, food, culture all interest me!

    Thanks ahead of time for having me here!

        Hi Coop,

        You should be excited--Hawaii is the best! By the way, I live in Phoenix area as well - Mesa to be specific. If you're going to Maui, my wife and I put together a Maui family vacation website if your interested:
        http://www.barefoot-in-maui.com/

        If you're going to Oahu, we've been a couple of times--loved it, and here's a few pics of the activities we did there:

        Now that we are having 100 degree weather here...can't get to Hawaii fast enough.

          You have 2 great sites! I plan on spending more time looking at them. I noticed you have a picture of a dog and cat on the home page of one of them. Your pets? The cat looks exactly like out cat Rusty!

          We live on the far west side over by the 101. Very close to the new cardinals stadium! Home values have really been shooting up all around the new stadium.

            Thank you!

            Yes, those home prices have skyrocketed. I hope the new stadium will help get our Cardinals motivated to go to the Superbowl someday.

            The dog and cat picture is not ours -- we got it from istockphotos.com. About 95% of the pictures are our own. But my boys would love to have a dog...someday.

              hey Coop...... you will love Hawaii im sure when you go. I suggest instead of renting a room to get a condo. I found mine on www.rentalo.com. They have great choices !! and at good prices. The condos are privately owned so you pay cheaper going through the owner than the rental offices if they have such a thing. And get your airline ticket from the internet ! I found some good places too where it was cheap too... anyways hope you make it there cuz i know i am on june 10 ill be there
