Oink,
I lived over on the Kona side back in 2000-2001, bought a parcel in KulaKai in 03 and was suppose to move back in 05... I'm still over here in Seattle part time (now); LOL. Actually we're on our way now, the house is geting listed next week and as soon as it sells (should move quick) we'll be moving out to Waa Waa where we picked up a new "vog free" lot back in Feb. We seem to spend a great deal of time there though, we still havent moved yet and we're taking another trip in 3 weeks but we just got back less than 2 weeks ago. So, we're bouncing back and forth in limbo right now. The only thing keeping us over here in Seattle is getting this house ready to sell. I've waited over 7 years to get back there permanently, so I know the feeling very well.
We're renting a different VRBO this trip and the owner is trying to talk her kids and husband into moving to thier Leilani house over the San Diego house but they are holding her back as they are unwilling... she's bugging out about it too. They're many of us itching to get over there. My newest motto... JUST DO IT! I'm fed up with trying to wait for the perfect conditions. So what, we lose $150k on our OLD/PAST potential house value, our sanity is worth far more than that. I'm so fed up with hearing cars, planes, police helicopters and fighting traffic everyday. Sick of the fast pace, empty object possesions chase, depressing grey skies, cold, blah, blah, blah. The kids are on thier own now and enough is enough already. We're outa here. The mainland can kiss my ___.
Week before last I was clearing over 1000' of our overgrown driveway in Waa Waa and cussing only about how hard on the chainsaw Guava trees are. Nasty trees, I hate them. Anyhow, I'm with you on that note... can't wait to be moved over and mentally relaxing again.
South Florida is where you're at now I take it? Eeeks; I was over there last September and was happy to leave it behind. I did have one good night over there, but, I had to get drunk, it was in a very stinky bar called Blue Loues or something like that in Indiatlantic.
I wish you well on your desired move... life will be much better and I know that from experience.
E ho'a'o no i pau kuhihewa.
