Love of the Islands Dedicated to All True Romantics Submitted by Joseph As I grew to maturity, my vision of the Hawaii was shaped by all the tales of romance that I heard. When I was old enough to travel, I made my first visit to the Islands in 1972. I was overwhelmed by the atmosphere that greeted me even as I was stepping off my plane. That trip lasted only a short two weeks, but gave me time to fall in love with each of the five islands I visited. Every one was special in its own way. Hawaii captured my heart forever. Since then I have returned seven more times to the enchanted islands. Each time my family grew bigger and bigger. At first, it was just myself and my wife, then as time progressed my first, then second daughters. On my last trip, my son joined us and brought the total to five. Each of us loves Hawaii in our own way and yearn to go back to the beauty and tranquility we discovered. My youngest daughter is now three years old and it is our dream to share our Hawaii and memories with her as soon as possible. The call of our distant love grows stronger every day. Me ke Aloha Pumehana! Joe, Cathy, Cecilia, Janine, Allison & Ken Strauch
