We had a great time talking about WDW, Hawaiian sovereignty, flowers, and how we'd be drinking the cloud that was enveloping the West Maui mountains in a couple of months. Just regular ol' dinner conversation.
Yes, a fine time was had by all. As usual, we prefer to get out of the touron zone when we visit a port town, and Mr. & Mrs. Hobie provided transport and advice to do just that. I think we might break bread more often were it not such a long trip from one home to the other.

Hobie, you know we've got a repeat scheduled for your next visit to WDW. I may even take y'all to the place where they serve a foie gras creme brulee!

Ooh! Ooh! Can I come? Can I come?

The Lil' Husker got home for summer break a few days ago. She went out yesterday and reconnected with one of the locals.

Heh! When the oldest daughter, Andrea, was twelve I got roped into driving her Girl Scout troop on a field trip to Monterey so they could tour a Coast Guard cutter commanded by a woman. There were mothers driving too but I was still the only male on the trip.

We got to Monterey and parked on the end of the Coast Guard breakwater next to the ship. The deal was we'd walk back to the beach and have lunch and then take the tour. Some of the girls ran ahead while some of us stopped to watch some sea otters. We got to the beach, I dropped our stuff, laid out a towel to sit on and started looking for Andrea.

I scanned the beach and didn't see her. I scanned back the other way and still didn't see her. I went back the other direction and still didn't see her. While scanning back and forth I did see some girls in bikinis playing in the shore break. I glanced back at them and suddenly realize Andrea was in the middle of them in a bright lime green bikini. That was my first surprise. The second was, what the hell is that on her chest and where did they come from?

Queue the sighing and eye rolling.

So I'm sitting there wondering when all this happened when, out of the corner of my eye, I spot some dude with his eyes popping out while he's zeroing in on the Girl Scouts.

I stand up, circle around, and walk up next to him. He looks at me and says, "Pretty hot babes huh?"

I look him dead in the eye and reply, "Dude, they're all twelve years old."

Apparently he was very perceptive as his eyes got big, he gulped, and there was a loud bang when the air filled in the space he had suddenly exited.

My wife still thinks this is one of the funniest stories she's ever heard.
