In the center of it all

Park Avenue - home of numerous financial service organizations. I
thought that I'd take a minute to reflect on how blessed I am. No,
I'm not balling, but just appreciative.

Tornado in NC

Sunday March 28th, 2010 will go down in the record books. The southeastern area of the United States had a series of tornadoes and poor weather conditions. Jerry, one of my friends from NC STATE had an up close encounter with a Tornado and recorded at the footage that you see here.

It is interesting that people would stop driving rather than continue driving. The act of stopping under a bridge saves yourself, but puts others in harms way. I guess that we live in a "me first" society.


The video is exciting, but the act of selfishness breaks my heart.

Birds on a Wire Part 2

More bird watching.

Birds on a Wire @ Grand Hyatt in Kaua'i

Just kicking it with the birds before we leave the resort.

Breakfast with a chance of Rain

Even when iris rainy, the views are amazing. I have to give the Grand
Hyatt in Kaua'i a big thumbs up. We toured other hotel properties on
the island and nothing comes close to the Grand Hyatt.

Kalalau Trail

Hanging out near Kalalau Trail, the famous 11mile trail that the
island is known for. The drive to the area was pretty amazing. The
trail sits near the north western end of the island
