Introduce yourself

[wanuka]

[] Aloha everyone, my husband and I will be retiring to the Puna District in two years. We look forward to getting on the plane from the mainland for the very last time and not looking back! We have been visiting Hawaii since 2006 and the Puna District grabbed our hearts from the very first stay. We are still going back and forth on whether to buy an existing home or build. We come from a small rural area in southern NM and are used to small town living. We currently have to drive over 65 miles to get to major restaurants and stores, healthcare, etc., so the drive to Hilo is nothing to us (even during the "rush hour"). We don't really want to buy yet because we will not be able to move until my husband retires in two years - thus the tossing around the idea of buying land and building.....we have followed the forum for several years and have read lots of great posts and gotten some good information. Hopefully in the next year we will have a plan whether to buy or build and start the next chapter of our journey!

Live, Laugh, Love.....
