In just a few days I will have the pleasure of checking out first hand our new Trip a Day Giveaway destination.  Yes, somebody has to do it!  It’s not just Maui…but it’s the Four Seasons Resort at Wailea.  Yup, the Four Seasons.  My husband and I never had our honeymoon so I feel blessed that we get to go to the most beautiful place on earth.  True, it will be a working vacation, I’ll be broadcasting and reporting to you on all the cool things to do–again–a difficult assignment, but I feel up to the challenge.  But…best of all, I get to give these spectacular vacations for two  awayevery weekday on my show.  It’s even easier to win now with the Trip a Day Giveway always at 10am.   Just ask Charlene Abercrombie of Detroit–our first Maui winner.  She’s going to be celebrating her retirement from General Motors on her vacation.  So honeymoon, retirement, just a fun trip–I’m sure you’d love this.  If you’re not registered, do not pass go…go immediately to the Trip a Day Giveaway page and sign up!

It’s hard to believe the summer season is over.  What a whoosh of great activites and music.  I can’t even tell you my favorite concert because they were all so good.Okay, maybe it was Smooth Jazz Fest.  Of course, for me personally, getting married was the highlight of my summer (you would hope so, right!).  I’ve loved our family outings too and watching my son get closer to his new step father. So, there was lots of excitement and change over the summer!

Yesterday, on my morning walk I saw my breath for the first time (uh-oh) and have had to use the rear window de-frost talking my son to school in the mornig. Oh yes…back to school and fourth grade.  My son is big, tall for his age and acting more grown up all the time (relatively speaking of course).  I have so many listeners remind of when I was pregnant and marvel how ten years could have passed so quickly with my smooth jazz family.  Well, we’re all still together and here’s looking forward to a new season and (I hope) ten more years.
