I think that Pele appreciates it, and she will be putting on a show for you! HVO scientists have been running around like ants on spilt honey. I am so happy for you and Ed. I absolutely cannot wait to shower in your outdoor shower (if you will have me). Your house is daring and, I'm sure, gorgeous. Can't wait to see that either. It's a puzzlement to some why anyone would leave California. But I say go west! No, further west than that! Further....further! You've reached it. Congratulations.
You will soon be joined by Still Hope. Talked to her on Friday. Her container is en route! She will follow shortly. Blessings to all.

Thank you all. We are as excited as old folks can be! (I'm not really old, but always thought that 62 was old 'till I got there)
Blake, you Lynn and your daughter must come by at least to say hi. Mella, we are really looking forward to meeting you in person! Still have the punatic bumper sticker you sent us.
Royall, we are not accomplished woodworkers, but I've done a bit and will share my tools gladly. I love my table and band saws, and I love working with wood. Ed would love to throw some clay again, so we may build him a wheel...... or Devany could share her skills with him!
Glen, please stop by the next time you are on island (so nice to say that!) We've enjoyed your prose/poetry for years! Time to leave California while you still feel young, my friend. Money cannot buy what we already have in Hawaii: Puna and this group of people.
Thanks again to all of you- see you next week!!

Again, thank you all for the kind notes of welcome. EightFingers, the Unisaw was the first thing to go in the container- have no idea how we're going to unload it, but will figure something out. Jerry, looking forward to meeting you and Bear and once we loose some mainland weight, going on a hike with you both! Kathy: thanks for the info on movers. Is your son still doing tile work on the Hilo side? We may need some work with slate in Glen's shower (Ed made some privacy curtains for the shower just for Glen- if anyone hasn't seen pics of the shower, let me know and I'll send you a link.) Glen has an open invitation to the shower, by the way, once he finally comes West, West, no FURTHER west! Come on Glen! KeaauRich, where in Orchidland? Send an email if you like. Aloha all.
