Wiping out is an underappreciated skill.

In Hawaii, the environment is fabulous. In Malibu, the people are fabulous. Our family unity is tight, and we have the Pacific Ocean outside our door in both places, so there is consistency.

I do need to travel with a purpose, though. I can't go somewhere to just hang out with friends.

Fortunately, I was given an incredible foundation from my independent mother. She showed me what was possible from a strong, loving woman.

I'm the dad, the cleanup guy. I deal with the bigger messes. But I also provide more adventures and excitement. It works out.

Travel's the great educator, especially for the girls. You can't put a value on it.

Make sure your worst enemy doesn't live between your two ears.
