Bare trees, gray lights - from Victoria BC
All the trees are naked in the cold winter air and the branches reach for the sun.  Twisted limbs embrace the sky.

The truth about those 200 sf sheds that don't need a building permit on Maui... - 01/23/12 11:57 PM
The truth about those 200 sf sheds that don't need a building permit on Maui...
Wow, I am tired of hearing other Maui Realtors spouting off about how you don't need a building permit to build a 200 sf shed on Maui.  That is such bad information that they keep repeating in front of my clients, and I have to butt in with these qualifiers:
it's for storage buildings only, on AG zoned land there can be no plumbing or wiring involved, or you will need permits  you can't live in it!  Even if everyone is doing it, you can't legally … (2 comments)

My Haiku Maui HI garden update for January 2012
What are we eating from our Haiku Maui garden this month?
After a very wet couple of months in November and December we are now having to water the garden every day!  There's plenty of new starts going in and more beans sprouting up.  It's a fair amount of work, and there's always weeding to be done, but we really enjoy the results.

Today, January 19, 2012 was the upcountry Realtor caravan for the Makawao and Pukalani Maui region.

Awesome fish taco from Island Taco at the Haiku Marketplace, Haiku Maui HI 96708
I finally got a chance to try the fish tacos which I have heard about at the Island Taco stand in Haiku.  The new owners Ron and Cici have really made it look nice and there's tables to sit and eat your taco if you're not in a hurry to get to the beach.  They are in the parking lot of the Haiku Marketplace in downtown Haiku Maui, where Haiku Road meets Kokomo Road.

It's wonderful that there are so many good choices for lunch or … (3 comments)

Aloha Friday from Peahi Maui Hawaii, the home of the JAWS surfbreak
With big wave season upon us on the north shore of Maui, people from all over the island are driving out to the countryside of Haiku to find JAWS.  There are no signs so if you don't know where you're going you might get lost.  This week the swell was worthy of a huge crowd who got to enjoy seeing stand up paddlers zooming down the wave faces.  Some cars got stuck in the muddy fields which are not really prepared for crowds.
