I've only been down to North Carolina, for a few times on vacation. Mostly around Kitty Hawk and the beach... From what I've seen, it's a beautiful state with lots of friendly people.

I would be more than happy to give you the info! However, a lot of people would not consider my choices to be cool! I tend to gravitate towards the museums and historical sites rather than any of the "fun" places, lol :)

I lived on the island of Oahu, which was pretty neat...for a while! It was beautiful there with dark, wet rainforests on the mountains and valleys filled with groves of brilliant green and vibrant flowers. The beaches were the best, esp. Hakauma Bay ( I hope I'm spelling it correctly). There, the water is crystal clear and you can see the huge droves of brightly colored fish that come up almost to the water's edge and further out, you can see the coral. Yes, it was pretty there and for the first two years, I liked living in Hawaii. After that, though, I was pretty much dying of boredom! They weren't kidding when they said isaland life was slow!
Yes, you're right, it did snow on the Big Island (Hawaii) a few years ago. It was bizarre! It was very hot on Oahu at the time and I remember being quite envious of the kids on Hawaii who got to run around in the snow wearing shorts! Last year, I heard that a company actually shipped snow to Hawaii so that the children could experience it. It actually lasted a couple of days, which surprised me.

>Ha, you're just seeing how the other half lives! :)
Lol! I like the way you put that! I never thought of it that way... Now I don't feel so bad :) Thanks!

Thanks for the tip! I'll be on the lookout for it. I finally saw "Windtalkers" a few days ago. I was a little disappointed with it--Peter's role was too small! It seems like such a waste of talent, for me, to have him play such a minor character. I think that is why I was a little disappointed with "The Lost World". It always seemed to me that something was missing... that his character wasn't as developed as it should have been. After all, Dieter Stark was in second command, I would have thought he would have played a more substantive role in the story.
