ThriftyFun: Aloha From Hawai'i

As some of you may have heard, the majority of the ThriftyFun staff are visiting Hawai'i, starting today, March 5, 2010. We are going as a memorial trip for our founder, Susan. She left us in December 2008 and wished to have her ashes scattered there, with her late husband's.

We are visiting Oahu for 6 days, with Susan's sisters, children, grandchildren and loved ones. Most of the family is deeply involved with ThriftyFun. Check throughout the week for updates and feedback, as we will post photos of our adventures to share with the rest of the ThriftyFun community.

A special thank you to both Kezia and Barbara for staying home and keeping the site running. This trip wouldn't be possible without the two of you.

We will still be sending out our regularly scheduled newsletters and posting new tips, photos, recipes and requests as normal. We may be a bit slower on feedback and responding to emails but we will get to all of you as soon as we possibly can.

Thank you so much! Or as they say in Hawai'i, Mahalo!

To those of you unfamiliar with Susan's story, here is a post about her. We received a record number of feedback from the many members who were touched by her kindness and generosity.
