Mark Twain Described Hawaii As The Loveliest Fleet Of Islands That Lies Anchored In Any Ocean. Twain Is One Reason Ive Never Ventured Far From Home. He Convinced Me Early On That All I Need Is Right Here. Im Stuck To This Rock Called Hawaii Forever.In His Work Life Lindsey Has Strived To Serve The Interests Of His Lhui (People) To The Best Of His Abilities First As A Social Worker With The Family Court Of The Third Circuit Then As A Park Ranger With The National Park Service At Puukohol Heiau National Historic Site.
