Soap-whittling Cub Scouts, Irish Spring rashes, and a “monumental” morning-show voice… then we get tropical for real: Key West’s Southernmost Point is getting a makeover, we debut Vacation Rules, and the Good Book delivers peak weirdness (21 underwater yoga poses in one breath). We’re 76 days from Thanksgiving in Paradise—Waikīkī, we’re coming.
