This Global Warming is getting out of hand!

It's rained long enough and hard enough that everything is getting that "Puna funk", closets smell like a mushroom farm. Time to launder everything in the house.

It's called Global Warming, but it just means catastrophic climate change caused mostly by manmade greenhouse gases. That can mean snow in Southern California, and tornadoes in Kentucky in the winter. It also means, unfortunately, rising oceans. I would really like the ocean level to stay pretty much where it is.

Glen, the climate change stuff is a last ditch effort to cover some rather sore okoles. Virtually none of the few year ago predictions are panning out, and in fact it's cooling off as predicted in the 70s "Ice age coming". Don't want to get into it here, but Email me for my side.

Retaining walls for big island ocean front? - On pain of wondering off topic, but me thinks this relates to the global warming comments.
Meanwhile - We got a little break up here in the acres yesterday, this morning however we are having a pretty steady light rain, and no painting -aaaaargh!
Good morning to have that extra cup of coffee and hang out in bed watching the cnbc talking heads describing market doing good things –cheers!

Took my visiting high school classmate and her daughter up to HVNP today, and it wasn't raining above 3500 feet, just a little very light mist now and then. We even saw patches of blue off to the southwest. Driving back to Hilo we hit drenching rain at Glenwood. Yuck.
Cheers,
Jerry
