Well, poop.

So it turns out we aren't going to Hawaii next week after all. Seems the folks in Hawaii who would be paying Quin's way have spent all their money for this quarter, so it's a no go. They will get more money when the new quarter starts Sept. 1 so there is still hope that perhaps we can go sometime between then and the end of the year. The hardest part will be actually finding a time to go, as Quin has lots going on for work this fall. He'll be gone for 2 weeks each month in September, October and December, plus he now has drill weekends to work around, and my Mom and I have plans to go on a girls' weekend to New York City the last weekend of October or the first weekend in November. We'll have to get out the calendar and see if there's a week when we're free--I'm willing to squeeze it in wherever I can! Hopes springs eternal.
