Glenna & Larry – Luv Story

Luv Stories of Maui Marital Bliss

We don’t really have a “romantic” love story.

We have been friends for a very long time

and have known each other since high school.

We are in our 60s and we have been together for over 8 years.

We are best friends and find it silly to call each other boyfriend/girlfriend.

We like husband/wife much better. 🙂

We think it is time we make our relationship official!

Larry said that he won’t look any different in Hawaii

than he does at home

and that’s the truth.

He wears Hawaiian shirts here year-round.

We planned a backyard Hawaiian wedding here in Oregon

but our work has been keeping us too busy to plan.

My son wanted to go to Hawaii a few months ago

so we bought tickets

and planned a short vacation.

Larry and I were talking …

and both of us had the same thought at the same time….

“why don’t we just get married on the beach at Maui?”…

So we are “eloping” and will party with friends and family later.

We have their blessing.

They wish they could join us but they love the idea, too.

We love telling people that the Maui Marrying Man is marrying us!

Thank you,

Glenna & Larry – Luv Story Blessing

Having known each other since high school,

then to have journeyed thru life’s adventures

and re-discovered

the miracle of Love for each other after all those years

and feeling more like Husband and Wife…

Well…

that’s about as romantic as love really gets.

Hollywood’s version of ‘romantic’ is make believe.

You have the ‘Real Deal’ 😉

I’ve had a number of Hawaiian shirts for decades myself…

Dreamin’ of bein’ where the palm trees sway

near the clear blue warm waters

with the gentle ocean breezes …

With all those Hawaiian shirts…

“Larry Aloha” must have inspired Glenna’s son with Island dreams…

It must have been an ‘easy sell’ and soon had tickets to paradise.

Spontaneity is a Virtue

To be fully present in the moment…

Wherever that moment takes you.

So Welcome – E Komo Mai

Welcome to be Maui’d on the beach

Enjoy Eternal Maui Marital Bliss celebration!

The Start of 2020

Our business was doing great, but we still couldn’t afford to buy a house or a condo. Renting in Maui for another 30 years was not an option we wanted to take. Then, Bobbie Jo suggested we buy a sailboat that is comfortable to cruise and live in. By the end of January, we started looking for our new home.

After a long search, we found our dream boat in Mazatlan, Mexico. COVID-19 was not yet a concern when our boat hunt began, but masks were starting to appear at airports by the time we flew to Mazatlan. Originally, we had planned to get the boat ready as fast as possible to cover a full calendar for the busy wedding season. However, it was apparent our business was going to tank amid the pandemic, and the struggle went on until the end of the year.

Luckily, we scored an awesome condo for only $19 a day at Mazatlan. On the 10th day of our stay, we received the news that all harbors will be closed the next Monday morning. We thought we’d be stuck in Mexico longer, but another sailor advised us to leave before sunrise.

We felt the adrenalin of escaping the Mexican harbor master just before the sun rose that faithful day. The seas were rough as waves were building up in the tight channel that led us to the open ocean. We ended up anchored off an adorable little isle just a mile offshore. We enjoyed cruising to many spectacular anchorages and cute villages on our way to Puerto Vallarta, where we would depart for Maui on May 7. On May 30, 2020, we completed our 24-day passage from Mexico to Maui.
