Hawaiian Blessing for Season Four cbs.com |
As I watch the leaves turn color (and the temperature drops) I have a small ache in my heart for Hawaii. The best salve came Friday night with the H50 Season Four Premiere. It delivered non stop thrills, bromance humor, and suspend-belief-moments. It also offered beautiful shots of Bellows Beach, Aloha Stadium, and Steve-the-Navy-SEAL in action.
How can I sustain this Aloha Spirit?

3. These veterans-turned-writers will tide me over 'til I can meet (again) Navy Vet Lindsay McKenna at the RT Booklovers' Convention in New Orleans. She is hosting Navy SEAL Chief Jaco for several events, including the SOS Military Mixer:
The original military romance author, Lindsay McKenna, is bringing retired US Navy SEAL Chief Michael Jaco, who was part of SEAL Team Six. Jaco will be our keynote speaker at his memorable event.

4. Meanwhile, I'll drink Hawaiian Fruit Tea to sustain me for the upcoming cold weather.
Did you enjoy any TV shows (new or returning) during this week of Season Premieres?

We started watching The Big Bang Theory....episodes from past seasons and we are enjoying it. We have lots of episodes to catch up on.
ReplyDeleteI didn't watch any television this past week. I think when I was sewing I did pop in a DVD to watch.
ReplyDeleteI do like The Big Bang Theory. And I enjoy Castle.
ReplyDeleteBesides NCIS...we enjoyed Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
ReplyDeleteNot much... but my husband loves the avengers show Shields.
ReplyDeleteI managed to see Castle, NCIS & NCIS Los Angeles. Other than that I was into baseball.
ReplyDeleteI haven't watched any of the new shows yet. However, I did record them, and will watch them soon. My favorites returning are "Two Broke Girls", "Two and a Half Men", "Last Man Standing". I'm also looking forward to watching Grays Anatomy and Revenge.
ReplyDeletebook festival sounds like an interesting time, too bad can't make it :( have fun if you go down to it.
ReplyDeleteI imagine Hawaii is a hard place to forget after living there as long as you did. I still have fond memories from only being there less than a week. Castle is my number one show and they didn't disappoint. I also love The Big Bang Theory!
ReplyDeleteI liked that Criminal Minds came back last week. I've been looking forward to that show.
ReplyDeleteI did catch the return of Hawaii Five O. This week I also caught the premiere of Agents of SHIELD and Blacklist.
ReplyDeleteyes, I did
