I travel a lot for work. Rarely do I get to go to a place as wonderful---and far away---as Hawaii.

I don't normally write too much about my work travel experiences these days: It's something I did as a younger guy, and I view it now more as an admission of ignorance than anything else. But after decades of travel for both work and play, this one does stand out. This is a special destination. And, let's face it. When it comes to Hawaii, I am absolutely ignorant.
