moving to hawaii: Moving to rural Hawaii
- 07/05/08 12:54 PM
When you think of moving to Hawaii, you probably don't think about what it's like to live with feral rooster families. Well, if you really are moving to Hawaii, and you're moving to the country, your new neighbors may include roosters. There may be a lot of them. And they crow all night long when the moon is bright. All of them. Today I found this story about living with chickens on Kauai which is worth a read. You'll be in luck if your feathered neighbors are feral. You won't be so lucky if the racket comes from the house next door where your neighbor is raising fighting cocks. (2 comments)

There's one thing you'll soon notice after moving to Hawaii: all of the charitable events. Honolulu Magazine has a Kokua section that's always packed with events to be held around the state. The local newspaper is also good about publishing event calendars. There's a golf tournament to raise money for this; a silent auction to raise money for that. I do not jest when I say attend as many as you can. Not only do you earn good karma by giving, it is common to leave with a prize or an experience worth more than the cash spent to attend!
