speculation anyone?
No speculation, but would you settle for an opinion?
I drove Beach Road yesterday from Maku'u Drive in HPP to the mailboxes between Papaya Farms Road and Cinder Road:
* Maku'u to Hawaiian Beaches was graded, still a little rough in places. No problem at 15-20-25 mph, depending on your car or truck.
* The three Hawaiian Shores / Beaches speed bumps - not the three worst bumps on Government Beach Road
* New Pavement - Nice! I thought they did a good job
* Twists and turns through the trees - perfectly manageable. Don't drink and drive.
* The Exceptional Mango Trees - I'm glad they didn't cut them and remove them just so the road could be a few feet wider. I had no problem driving between and under them. Their massive trunks and arching branches offer a unique perspective as you travel through a forest that would be hard to find anywhere else in Hawaii, or the world. We are so much smaller, and younger than the world around us. Enjoy those beautiful, massive trees while you can.
Portion of Hawaii’s drinking water that comes from underground wells : 9/10
Gallons of raw sewage that leak into the ground from Hawaii cesspools each day : 53,000,000 - Harper's Index
