I find it so hard to believe there are actually Americans that would favor Trump and Vance. These two are a walking disaster.

Make sure to share with the teacher.

Lucky for me I seldom hang out with normal people.

Human ability to store and recognize patterns is amazing.

I recall John Lilly and dolphins. I once tried his isolation tanks.

The rain in Hilo is pretty much even year round. I would count on rain.

Where will everyone go next.

@@GreenGardenGuy1 I’m getting pushed out of a wasteland, so beats me!

@@Kensington.Island Wastelands seem popular.

Nope, their growth is as amazing as organic life.

Not the whole picture by any means, just a corner of the story. Our ability to recognize patterns is amazing.

Congratulations for finding the channel. It tends to be illusive. Aloha

We can hope the Islands nature is somewhat self regulating. Lava, isolating, material shortages are not something most Americans like much.

Escaping the birth place is pretty normal.

Huh?

Some of us have the knack. I answered horticultural questions for years. I knew when to head for the books though.

It seems I may have missed that one.

You are very welcome.

If the rain the rats and the roaches don't get you then the frogs will drive you back to Kansas Toto.

I have not resisted vaccination but neither have I been very timely about them. Back during the peak of covid, I wore a mask despite hating the thing. I tend to stick to the farm so social contact is mostly with friends and family. I got the first case by sharing a beer with my son when we were both well. The next day he fell ill. I have friends that have children in school. The latest version of covid was circulating in the schools and friends brought it to me some how. After 3 or 4 shots and two infections I hope to be pretty resistant because I have grown tired of all the precautions.

You're welcome. Another day, another thought.

Thanks for the feed back. I hope your change to Big Island works out well for you. The Island attracts many different sorts of folks. Only so many of them are well adapted to life here. It's a good place to be compared to many other spots on the planet. Aloha

I like the fact that the juice is low acid and the fruit pulp can be eaten. Green fruit are eaten like squash. The ripe ones are okay in mixed fruit salad with lots of juice.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Lovely weather! I do not miss that stuff but the volcanoes keep life interesting here.

Maybe.

Habitable, that is a matter of opinion. The driest area of Puna is the south east shore and the strip on the south up to Volcanoes National Park. The rain in this area is half. Since it is pure lava, it is really dry. It is also one of the riskiest lava areas in Puna. Most people still there either rebuilt after the flows or just got lucky. Places that didn't get lava recently are quite nice. Way too strange, far away from stuff and risky for my tastes. I suspect mud, rats and mosquitoes are few and far between out on the flows.

We do not have an extensive public water system here. The pipes from County wells only follow the main roads and towns. I spent 8 grand running a pipe from the highway to get hooked. Since making wells here is next to impossible and extremely expensive, most people use the roof to catch rain water for the house. Painted metal is the best material for catchment, easy to clean, no gravel, no tar taste. Asphalt shingle is very heavy. Everything is shipped here. The metal comes in big rolls and is processed into roofing on Island. It is much lighter and cheaper per sq foot. Everything here has to be repainted about every 7 years, the roof is no exception. Alaska uses mostly steel roof too because of shipping.

I’m from Las Vegas, and Coos Bay is an excellent place to spend the summer. Beautiful, cool temps in July, and the fish is fresh! 🤙

@@Kensington.Island It's quite pleasant weather there in the morning, but in the summer time, from about lunch time until evening, there's a strong breeze (20-25mph) that comes off the ocean and feels really chilly.

@@Kensington.Island used to do the snow bird thing in my youth. I don't travel much anymore. Puna is good year round.

I agree but I try not to let it sound like this spot is as good as it really is. Make it sound too good and we will be surrounded by people. That has happened to me almost everywhere I ever lived. The public word is, it rains all the time, the termites eat the tires off your truck and the volcanoes, oh the volcanoes!

It hardly seems good for us. This channel is the only toe I stick into the internet and hardly a day goes by that someone doesn't step on it. At 73 I have met just about every form or moronic butt head on earth so there is little new. If I was 14 years old, I would see it differently. I might actually believe what other people tell me. Aloha

@@GreenGardenGuy1 I'm starting to withdraw thee amount of toes I have on the net while keeping contact with those I wish to . So far 4 apps deleted off my phone. Take care man and pet kitty for me .

Old video. I was talking about the shot for covid.

@@GreenGardenGuy1 ok. Thanks man 👍

It was fun.

All one. We were blessed to have such a fine cat arrive on it's own. She was feral and part of the natural cat distribution system.

Yes, last tank. The water is clear enough to see them but light reflection and the fact the dart up and back down so fast I have to catch them at rest.

@@GreenGardenGuy1 you eat those tilapia ever, or just pets? Thy aren’t exactly as tasty as what’s in the ocean out there, but it’s a resource.

@@Kensington.Island The point of raising the Tilapia was for food. At this elevation, it has been 2 years and the fish are still under harvest size. Warmer areas grow them faster. The flavor of Tilapia depends on the food they eat and quality of the water they swim in. The skin takes in the flavor of the environment. In HI, with lots of rain, the fish usually tastes good. From a mud hole they taste bad. Because we have no lakes and few streams or rivers, fresh water fish in HI is very rare. The really good salt water stuff is best caught using a good size boat here. I'm no sailor so I pay the fishermen for the stuff. It is well worth the money but the Tilapia are cheaper to eat.

Another day in cat Paradise.

So far she has attracted no trolls. I should replace myself with a furry gray cat.

@@GreenGardenGuy1 I like you the way you are Bill 👍🏻❤️

@@user-pw2ze5xl4p Popeye the Sailor, "I am what I am!"

@@GreenGardenGuy1GrayC is so loved that it shows on her. She has become so behaved😍

@@victoriademesa Gray-C was a special gift from the natural cat redistribution service. She knows she is where she is supposed to be and so do we. Her presence has brought more love into the house.
