Hello PegasusTeam. I'd like to move to the islands, but it looks like I'd have to run away to sea in order to do so. Thanks for your comments!

Aloha! Thanks for the information. My husband and I are planning a move to Oahu in the next year. He runs an Outsourced IT company in Ohio and will be closing up shop to move. This will be a big help to us as we get closer!

Brilliant Hub -
