What's up, y'all? It's been twelve days since I completed my move to the Hilo area in Hawai'i County. All's I can say is, this is where I belong. There are all sorts of things you can find here you can't find anywhere else - like a dozen purple Hawaiian sweet potatoes for two bucks. Ono. I'll let the pictures tell the story:
-The last selfie I took before I left Ohio.
-Giving offerings of sacred tea leaves and guava to Pele at the Kilauea Crater.
-Sometimes the scenery vaguely resembles West Virginia; taken at the island's Wal-Mart.
-Ducking falling coconuts at the local Healing Pond, where the tides flow in through a stone structure into a body of water about the size of a large swimming pool, where you can swim with the tropical fishes.
-Getting some sun at Kehena Beach, which is composed entirely of volcanic rock and must by reached by climbing down and exited by scaling a slightly strenuous rocky hill; where nudity is allowed and a certain herb is openly indulged in. No hassle or perversion, just chillaxin'.
-Hugging a Honu, our family totem.
-Standing on the cliff at Mackenzie Park, where my parents got married.
Yep yep.
