Hawaii - Christmas 1994

The Hussey's, Bill, Bettye, John and Alizabeth, were still stationed on Oahu. Patty, Patty's mom, Brian, Kevin and I flew over. We rented a house on the island of Hawaii that came with the boat that you see pictured here. The result was an epic good time that ranks as probably the best trip ever. The stories from this trip have been told and retold many times.
