Aloha Means Many Things....

I saw one of those digital highway traffic advisory signs here last week... one of those black signs w/ the words written in orange dots that the DOT can change whenever they want to. The sign was on the outskirts of Honolulu, and it said "Drive with Aloha".

Drive with Aloha. ? I drove on, wondering how I should be driving with "hello" or "goodbye". Shortly thereafter, I forgot about it.

Then 2 nights ago at dinnertime, our 6 year old son, asked us a question right out of the blue! He said, "Do you know all the things that Aloha means?" We said, "No, can you teach us?" And his reply was, "Well, Aloha means hi, bye, to care, to share, and I don't remember what else."

And the light went on! Drive with Aloha means, "Drive with CARE"!! And suddenly it all came clear.

Thomas of Jack Army, thanks for your comment! I was unaware of your pending PCS to Hawaii, so I'm glad you mentioned something. I visited Jill's blog and read more of the news there. That's awesome. We're stationed at Schofield as well... I'm happy to help answer any questions you guys may have about the move... documents, schools for kids... whatever. Don't forget to get Jill and the kids EFMP screenings done in plenty of time. =o)

I actually missed the internet much more than TV... but with the new seasons of shows starting soon, I was ready. NFL starts TONIGHT!!! Lost, Survivor, CSI, and Without a Trace all start soon!! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Ok, well I'm off to read the blogroll..............
