That's a lot of travel. What do you play there? Poker?
Yep - you'll generally find me at the tournaments running at Aria/Venetian/Wynn - played several of the Bellagio Five Diamond tourney's this month - and in my opinion - Bellagio has really lost their way with poker.
Uh - wife - family - business ties - certainly not here for what I consider the overly hot/humid weather.
Aha. And those are among the significant reasons I don’t live full-time in Hawaii since my military assignments way back.
But reading further your interests, we are quite opposite in lifestyle and leisure pursuits. Gambling, gaming, stage entertainment, dining out, wine tours, bar hopping, sporting events … pretty much not a playbook for an Hawaii lifestyle, alright.
Yet, while my interests are doable in Hawaii, the venues for sailing, kayaking, hiking, wilderness camping et al also just really lack much variety in the Islands compared to mainland.
Still, I never seem to stop wrestling with my affection for my on-again / off-again life in Hawaii. Seems best I should just stick with part-timing as I have since the 60s.

The phrase of Las Vegas as the 9th Island rings true - especially downtown Las Vegas. Take out wine tours above and it highly matches a desired Hawaii lifestyle for many - the locals just have to fly to get it.

Sure … and I’ll rephrase: ‘not a match for lifestyle that takes place in the eight islands in the middle of the Pacific’
One of Molokai's most iconic tourist adventures, the mule ride down the 2,000-foot-tall Molokai sea cliffs to Kalaupapa, is closed indefinitely.Apr 30, 2018
I know this is an old thread, but I'm missing Hawaii a lot. Lived on the Big Island for several years, and I'm not likely to get back until my son takes my ashes to Punalu'u Black Sand Beach.
In the mean time, I listen to Iz to transport me back

I heard the dispute also had something to do with just WHO was responsible for maintaining the trail. With the resort closed and the ranch having ceased operations, makes you wonder just how long the population can stave off development - it's a fact that a raw land vacuum attracts developers ya know -. Money, influence, and just pain greed tends to trump development opposition most times. Particularly on an island which, I understand, is one of the few places in the U.S. where recipients have no limit on how long they receive welfare due to lack of (legal) economic activity... V/R

Considering the island of Maui has halted new hotel development the next 2 years - I seriously doubt Maui County will rezone Molokai to ever be developed - unless Molokai somehow becomes its own County - and that new County had representatives who desired rezoning - and the land isn't ultimately owned by the State.

I agree. I think some islands should be left alone (or relatively so). The entire state (minus Niihau) doesn't need to be a tourist trap).
