Spring time! I totally forgot that a couple of weeks ago was the first day of Spring! Or is it now sprung? Either way, the winter is finally over (bummer) and means we are that much closer to summer. It is generally pretty warm here year round anyway, at least this past week was nice and cool. It was sunny and being in the direct light was kind of toasty but there were some cool breezes which felt nice. Sooner or later we will hit the 80 degree temps, then the 90's and close to 100 if not over a few days of the year. AC, it's is a miracle thing!Weekly Update:
This past week sure felt really long and I am not sure why. It is probably due to work and how slow and boring it was. Traffic was pretty bad mid-week but early and late it was very clear, go figure that one out. I don't think there are many schools out there still on Spring Break. Last week was very clear but also a short week due to Good Friday in the mix. I am already ready for the next holiday to happen!

Aloha Aloha! What does that mean, well in this sense it means goodbye Aloha Airlines as it closes down and prepares for bankruptcy-induced shutdown. Competition started about 2 years ago as Phoenix-based Mesa Airlines started to tap into the island market with cut-rate fares. Aloha and the Hawaiian legislature tried to compete and come up with loan packages to keep the airline afloat. What airport is effected the most is Orange County's John Wayne as Aloha was one of the very few who offered flights from the southland to the islands. Most major carriers fly out of LAX and San Francisco with some from San Diego. It is a sad day when a little carrier has to go to the wayside to a struggling economy. Aloha Aloha Airlines.
