Hi Brett

Hope you can make the Getaway, it'd be nice to see you again. I believe Jerry does that song. I believe I had it from a old LP (back 30 yrs or so) of Jim Kweskin's. He's the 1st one I ever heard it from.
Brett if you're looking to und some of those excursions try suplementing your income with pearl diving. An old boat mate of mine from Lahina did a bit of research of the subject, packed his gear & went off to Micronesia, just don't know what Island he was headed for. That was 25 yrs ago, never heard of/from him since (maybe this isn't a good idea). Anyway, it sounds like you're doing well finding your home (even though it may not seem that way). Island living (espically in the Pacific) is a different mind set & mostly the Islands as you head farther south have a culture that varies Island to Island even within the same group. If you do make the Getaway we'll be expecting you to demonstrate some of the traditional dance, talking hands, swaying hips & all. Maybe even some of the Guam garb?
Take good care & best of luck & get yourself a small weekend sailing/cruiser.
