Left the frigid Midwest (Chicago area) on January 30 at minus 23 degrees F (minus 55 degrees wind chill) and disembarked our flight 9 hours later in Hawaii and a balmy 82 degrees. Gotta love it
God it was cold!
Much nicer here... 105 degree temp differential

Awesome!
My wife is waiting to board in Grand Rapids Mi. as I type and I will be picking her up in Punta Garda in a few hours. She’s gonna have about 110° temp shift over last few days.
Enjoy Hawaii!

I also like the last shot best. I like the first one too though because I never get to see snow except in photos. Enjoy your retreat...

I like the surf and trees in your last image.

Nice pics! My friends in Hawaii are loudly complaining about the cold right now.. the temps are in the 60's!
Dont laugh too much. When you live in a tropical climate, your blood does thin out and 60 feels cold.

Yep, Chicago has been a bit chilly. Was 83 today in Manatee County Florida.
