Hawaii:

Another look back on our Baugh family tour visiting all 50 states.  Our visit was an emotional experience taking our son Jackson to Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial marking the resting place of 1,102 of the 1,177 sailors and marines killed on the U.S.S. Arizona during the attack. My great Uncle Donald Wiley was at Pearl Harbor during the attack and recounted the events that occurred to me in vivid detail when I was a teenager.  In addition to the profound history, we enjoyed the stunning blue waters, cascading waterfalls, unforgettable snorkeling adventures, and the Pro Bowl – where the legendary Don Ho serenaded us with "Tiny Bubbles." Hawaii, a place that stole our hearts, and a lot more than just a vacation spot for us!
