I’m in a Hawaiian Island State of Mind

Aloha, wanderboomers! Can’t you just hear the rustle of the wind, feel the warm tropical breezes, smell the salt-water air when you look at this palm tree photo? Yeah, me, too. There’s something about summer that makes me long for easy island living.

Oh, the windmills of my mind . . . I can look at this photo, close my eyes, and zap! I’m back on the beach in Hawaii, with not a care in the world, just enjoying the sun, the warmth and those lazy, crazy days of perpetual summer.

Are you with me? In case you, too, have a hankering to hit the beach in Hawaii, how about entering our very special travel writing contest? All you have to do is write a non-fiction travel story that takes place anywhere in the state of Hawaii or is about Hawaii. Make sure it fits into 1 of the 3 categories: Earth, Sea or Sky and submit it no later than September 14, 2012 11:59 p.m. PST.

Did I mention that the winner receives a 5-night stay (and fantastic extras) on Hawaii Island at the Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort & Spa (value: $3,282)? Each of the 3 best-in-category winners will receive a pair of La Paz Sandals from KEEN Footwear (value $60 – $70). For more information click on the link:
