That's so sad. I thought Hawaii would be more relaxed with that because it's literally an island away from everyone but apparently not. I can't stand the masks either, they literally add insult to injury. I almost died during surgery and the masks remind me of that. And people making their stupidity visible for the world to see is getting old too. Where we're moving to in South Carolina most people have enough sense not to wear them. We drove there to check it out already and it was such a relief to see people's faces. They had a mask mandate but it was mostly ignored. Driving through Georgia on the way back was really nice since they don't even have a mask mandate. The sense of freedom there nearly had me in tears. Florida is probably the same but we didn't make it that far south.
I lived in SC twice, for short periods...be aware that everyone is a Bible-thumper, will pester you about Jesus and going to church, and the alcoholism is insane. The food is great tho...
