I don't really care about the weather there. I'm not much
for warm weather. I would kinda like to see a volcano but
other than that and having a Puka Dog Hawaii doesn't really
have anything that interests me. I'd rather go to New England
in the fall, or Montana or some place like that.

AFAIC, I can't think of a better reason. I'm the kind of
person who will drive all the way to Cinncinati for chili.

Actually, it's "shave ice" (not shaved) and it's not the same
as the stuff they have at fairs. Maybe the ones in Calif. may
have real shave ice, but here in PA not so much - it's just
snow cones, which I like but are not the same. When I lived
in So. Cal. I used to go to a little Hawaiian place near El
Camino college that had real Hawaiian shave ice.

Served with rice. Yes, but I think it sounds interesting and
would like to try it. Perhaps, by itself, not a good enough
reason to go to Hawaii, but throw in the Puka dog and more than
enough reason.
