"Warren & Annabelle's"

We spent an evening last night at a nightclub in Lahaina, by the above name which is a "magic and humour" show. I am not much into magic, but I did enjoy the humour, particularly when it was without foul language, etc. The venue has been voted as Maui's top activity/show, for some time. In addition to the show there is food and drink beforehand, so it is a pleasant evening out. Two other couples went with us and getting to know other volunteers is always interesting.
Gas prices all over are rising, but I understand Maui is tops in the USA. The average national
price according to USA Today last weekend for regular was $3.27 per US gallon (which is 4/5 of a Canadian gallon, or 3.8 litres). As you can see by the attached picture, it is somewhat higher here. In fact Maui prices are $.20 higher than Honolulu, which I don't understand. The good news is that on a small island like Maui you can go quite a ways on $10 worth of gas.

We are welcoming approximately 50 new participants this weekend and saying goodbye to another group. Next weekend a second group arrives, so the building will be busy up until we leave on April 2nd.

We attended convocation on Thursday evening, a gala evening to windup a session.

Hi Ralph and Marlene
They are talking $1.40 a liter here by summer as well. That is $5.32 a gallon , your math. Canadians don't want to be outdone.
The snow is melting!!
Happy St. Patrick's Day.
