H. waimeae has a weak fragrance.

You are very welcome. It's been a pleasure to help you. I don't blame you for wanting to work the rug in when your hubby is so proud of it. We'll find a way. I've had to deal with hubby things too. It's called Love. Seems you mentioned the coffee table could be used elsewhere at some point. Have you thought about using your ottoman as a coffee table if you placed a tray on it? I did another virtual for you using it. I painted your walls and used the rug to "grab" some toss pillows for the sofa too. Oh I figured your Hawaii connection by clicking on your user name. (My Daddy was stationed in Hawaii with the Army Air Corp. He got out just thirty days before Pearl Harbor. Got called back very quickly, but not to Hawaii that time.) I was just curious where you were. Are you or your hubby Military? We have a nephew and his family in Germany right now with the Army. They are to be coming stateside soon though. We live in eastern Nebraska about twelve miles north of Omaha out in the country. We love it here. I hope your dream comes true soon and you can retire in Hawaii. Katie, our daughter, is planning a trip to Hawaii in September. She's Air Force.

WOW Loretta you do like to travel. Been to Vegas many times but just passing through. My hubby is a cannonball traveler. Get from point A to point B as fast as possible and home again. I am not into traveling at all.We have not been on a vacation since 2005. He did just buy a small boat so I suppose we will be doing some fishing. On the other hand where we live is like being on vacation all the time. Mountains small town slow lifestyle. We live the way most people have to go away to when they go on vacation. OK Game on ,worst vacation.Dare any one to top this. Went to Hawaii with adoptive mother and adoptive brother and his X girlfriend of 5 years before. Do we say tense?? So the guy I was living with then was not happy I was going at all which added to tense for me. So all three roomies NOT ME ate mixed nuts junk food and drank booze and got puking sick for three days. I was feeding the doves off the balcony to get out of the stinky room and maid busted into room and yelled at me for doing that. I was board stiff and certainly not having a good time. I really did not want to go but did it to please. Anyway was supposed to be a 10 day vacation half on the big island and half in Maui. I split on the fifth day when they flew to Maui I flew home. And to make it worse flight was fogged in in Sacramento so we had to land in Fresno and be bussed up to Sacramento. Took 24 hours to get home. Then my adoptive mother was so furious with me for leaving she threw away the camera I had given her for Christmas with the Hawaii pictures on it. Well oh well. And I am not even getting into all the side line stuff that went on. UGH. OH and did I mention I had pneumonia when I got on the plane to go to Hawaii??? A fun time was NOT had by all. Going over Hoover dam is neat. Done it many times. Chris

Since I don't have any Hawaii pictures readily available, I am posting a few of my oldest granddaughter. She is so gorgeous. Can't believe she is 28 already. I used to drive her crazy taking pictures of her, I was so glad when I got my first digital camera and could take tons of pics.
