I realize that's in the K'au District, but there isn't really a forum just for K'au! I mean, not to my knowledge. I checked the forum here and it doesn't seem to be strictly relegated to Puna-only discussion, so I apologize if this is off topic and won't do it again.
My mom is selling the house here in southern cali and buying the DH place, and I'm coming with! House is sold here in Cali, now we're in negotiations on the house we're buying, we're pretty sure the owners will work with us but if not, there are other houses we can buy too. The major hurdle was selling our place and that's completed, so while buying a place in Hawai'i isn't easy at all, the major hurdle has been cleared at least.
Anything you can tell me about K'au, or Puna for that matter, I'll gladly listen to every single one of you just rattle off stuff about the local environment, coqui frogs, little fire ants, ablizia trees, ginger or christmasberry. Restaurants, social gathering spots, etc.
I'm really looking forward to the beaches as my #1 reason to be in Hawai'i, I won't lie. With that said, it bothers me that such a beautiful tropical paradise is being invaded by ****ty plants and animals. I very much would like to help chop down and exterminate those things that don't belong.
I also enjoy exploring the local environment and getting to know the land like my own home. When you do that, it expands the dimension of your "home" environment and it feels like the outdoors is more of a giant backyard then a huge forbidding expanse of unknown land, and K'au is huge, it's the biggest district by far and most of it is forever zoned as conservation.
I haven't really done any fishing or hunting in my past, but I like fish and meat, so I wouldn't mind learning! That's pretty much all I want to do in Hawai'i, go to the beach, explore, maybe fish or hunt. There is one other thing, but I'm not sure if we can talk about that here, local internet culture varies from messageboard to messageboard. The um, pakalolo. can I talk about that? If not, I won't bring it up again.
Aloha
