So I went to Island Naturals today...

I also was able to confirm some of my initial observations. Inside, were more a number of spacey people that were sometimes transfixed by what they were looking at. They were so transfixed they did not make room as you tried to pass by. Mixed in with the smell of warm curry was just a hint of body odor. Any deodorant sold there is just taking up space. No one uses it. I think soap is frowned on, too. An otherwise adorable toddler who needed a good scrubdown headed in my general direction.
As I left, I saw someone I know at the picnic tables. He is very eccentric but quite kind and intelligent and was having an early dinner. I don't know what it is about the Natch but it seems to draw some quintessentially Puna characters. I was there, too and I think I count.

Kelena - Thanks for the recon mission to Island Naturals...too funny! Have you (or anyone else on Punatalk) been to the Saturday SPACE Market? How does it compare/contrast with the aforementioned market in Pahoa?
