I meant to post about this several days ago, and forgot. But, Stephanie is talking politics and reminded me. Don’t worry, I’m not going to get into a big political debate here. I like to save my rants to spice up quiet moments with friends.

The primary election happened here last Saturday (anyone else have voting on a Saturday? I thought this was odd.). For those of you who missed it, I’m in Hawaii where there is a tremendous amount of aloha and things are just more relaxed. Well, that is so even in politics! My husband and I were both shocked and pleasantly surprised at how the candidates dealt with issues rather than simply bashing their competition. There wasn’t any name calling, finger pointing or slanderous/sleazy advertising. Instead, the candidates made themselves available to the public and wished the other candidates well. It was incredibly refreshing.

Oh, and remind me someday to tell you about how easy it is to buy a car here.
