I brought this all on

Yes I think "seduced" is a correct description of what happened to alot of us that were going about living our lives on the mainland...then vacation to hawaii...and BAM! We had to not only live here, but had to own our own little piece of it. And lo and behold, affordable Puna.
Does lots of realty set in on you once you have lived here for awhile?...ya, but what an experience, and if it ends, I doubt very few will regret it.
