Blogging from Hawaii

A major benefit of living in Seattle is that we are relatively close to Hawaii. (Given the cloudy winters in the Northwest, we often say that living close to some other location is a benefit of living here, a bit of logic which may not hold up under close scrutiny.) Anyway, my wife S and I are spending a week on Kauai, where it is currently 80 degrees and sunny.

Some friends warned us that it's very dangerous to spend too long in the direct sunlight here, so I'm taking that excuse to do a little noon-hour blogging from the hotel's sheltered outdoor computers.  I've set up my phone to be able to blog by email too, but that's probably crossing the line, no?
