Volcano puts on a show, but not for travelers

Tiki is a great person, and a valuable asset to Kalani Honua and the Puna community. It's so strange that people here seem to just want to drag her down. All this negativity is NOT helping! Many people in Puna have been introduced to this area by Kalani (myself included) and everyone should acknowledge that tourism is something that many depend on. In order for Puna to continue to thrive we all have to work together. If/when HWY 130 is taken by the lava these alternate roads will be our only lifeline in and out. Yes it will be a huge adjustment, but that doesn't mean that life as we know it will completely change. How about we we all try together to find ways of making things work, instead of all the door and gloom?

Think about it this way... how many people can say they live with lava? That makes my little town WAY more exciting that just about everyone else's!
