We have come back to B-I again for our winter getaway.
This time we are looking at property in Puna, not just rubber-necking.
We will be moving here next summer.
It has been an eye opener. Probably the most depressing aspect is the "negative energy" of all the "NO TRESPASSING"; "PRIVATE PROPERTY"; "GO AWAY"; "ALOHA - F$%&-OFF AND DIE" signs all over the place.
Is there some liability issue that requires almost everyone to post such inhospitable signs everywhere? After driving day after day through neighborhood after neighborhood and seeing these signs everywhere One tends to lose faith in their faith in mankind.
You do see some of it in Alaska, but not so much in populated areas. In rural areas and the bush, yeah you do see the occasional "TRESPASSERS WILL BE SHOT AND EATEN" signs, but not so ubiquitously.
OK I've had my rant. I have edited a lot of my bad-mouthing from this. So, consider this a mild complaint.
It is not going to stop us, though. We'll still be moving here next summer.

Was a Democrat until gun control became a knee jerk, then a Republican until the crazies took over, back to being a nonpartisan again.
This time, I can no longer participate in the primary.
