Great time swimming with guy this morning. Loved hanging with him and his friend while they munched down lunch. Best part was that we snorkeled right from our campsite beach, just a few feet from our tent. #SJHawaii
Really enjoyed hanging with this green sea turtle yesterday in #Maui #hawaii ##SJHawaii
Rainbow over #Oahu. This isn’t a special occurrence, but that’s part of the magic of #Hawaii. #SJHawaii #Rainbow #Beach #Optoutside
Marked off my 367th #NationalPark unit todayβHonouliuli National Monument! This one’s a bit hard to get to (for now) #SJHawaii
First green sea turtle of the trip. Found this one on a locals beach that we’d heard about from a friend who lives on the island. #SJHawaii #oahu #greenseaturtle #beach #hawaii

Since I’ve already visited the obscure Tule Lake sub-unit of this national park, I didn’t add to my national parks quest today. But I did get to see a memorial all Americans should visit at least once. #SJHawaii #USSArizona #pearlharbor
Just about packed for our trip to Hawaii. Can’t wait to visit my 49th state, mark off 7 more national parks, and enjoy all that the state has to offer.
I wonder how many #SoCal adventurers know that Channel Islands National Park (and Potato Harbor on Santa Cruz Island) is just off the coast and perfect for a relaxing day-trip?
