Spent much of today looking at GSA auctions.
Much to be determined yet.
Gonna watch the next online auction.
See what happens.
I really hate the idea of buying online, sight unseen.
I'd have to go to an auction to make a buy.
Looked up our shipping to Hilo.
It cost us $1100 to ship in 2013 by Pasha.
They now want $1500.
Flight tickets to the mainland will cost much more than Hilo to Honolulu.
Don't really want to do a flight to the mainland, and back.
SW Air inter-island is definitely cheaper, but only out of Kona right now.
Kona is too much of a problem to deal with compared to Hilo.
After my last post, I remembered hostels.
They're available on Oahu starting at $30 for a dorm bed.
Being groped and theft are my greatest concerns.
Maybe I worry too much.
I'm not a baby-faced 20 something any more.
Neither of my FCUs are on Oahu.
I need to find one on Oahu that works with one or both of mine.
Still need to talk to my insurance people.
I need to get a new SoSec card so I can get a red Hawai'i DL to make TSA happy for flight travel.
I'll probably let this lay until next week.
Don't look to be going to go as soon as I'd hoped.
I think if I go to Oahu, I'll spend a week [Mon to Fri] and do a bit of rubber-necking with any extra time.
Since coming here, I haven't done much traveling.
I used to do a lot of it.

Was a Democrat until gun control became a knee jerk, then a Republican until the crazies took over, back to being a nonpartisan again.
This time, I can no longer participate in the primary.
