Originally from Ohio, Pedone moved to Hawai\u2018i in 2004 and raised his three daughters on O\u02bbahu. Now on Kaua\u2018i for the past six years, he enjoys a more relaxing lifestyle. Afternoons spent sipping mai tais by the beach, boating along the dramatic N\u0101 Pali Coast, or enjoying the serenity of Hanalei makes Pedone feel fortunate to live in one of the most beautiful places in the world. \u00a0\u201cKaua\u2018i is one of those places that touches your heart and soul. The natural beauty and genuine kindness will have you planning your return,\u201d Pedone said. When he’s not spending time<\/span> with his family, he’s hitting the links at the Ocean Course at H\u014dk\u016bala.<\/span><\/p>\n
