She also had a neighbor
He resented her being there, owning that spot, and having a say in what happened with the water upstream of his lo'i.
She was a hoot and fully capable of creating plenty of drama, all by herself, without any help at all LOL. In fact, she was a famous actress in Japan. In later years she had a hydro-electric rig set up. It was 4" pipe that ran 183 feet up the waterfall in her back "yard". In a shed, the pipe was separated into 4 jets that spun a truck alternator which charged a huge bank of golf cart batteries. She powered several vacation rentals with it and never wanted for electricity. Most in the valley were lucky to have a few solar panels. She was a force of nature for sure. Eric Johnson and Steven Oldfather built the famous tree-house. She also had the only phone in the valley for the longest time. Wild indeed.
There were no school busses in Waipio then and I think it's the same now. (keeping the thread on topic LOL)
