Vicky Durand’s Adventure Blo #62

May 11, 2024

Welcome to BLOG #62

We survived all the flood watches, but with lots of rain and mud this week. Last night there was beautiful lightening out over the ocean. Today is the most beautiful sunny day ever.

I am having trouble with my computer so am going to just hit some of the week’s highlights and get this out before anything more happens.

After years of planning the third coconut chandelier finally got installed over my kitchen work table and they look great! Kane, the electrician also did all the last electrical work which included four outdoor porch lights. I found some cool coconut designed lamps where the light will shine through the coconut cut outs.

Caleb the plumber came and did some minor work and assures me will return next week for the hot water and outside shower.

Thanks to a worker we got chips spread on two more lo’i. Things are green and growing. I have been harvesting delicious lettuce, arugula and cilantro for salads. The potatoes have covered the mounds of dirt and chips and look beautiful with their dark green leaves. There was a bumper crop of chioti (sp?) squash that Kira and I took to the farmer’s market yesterday and gave away.

I happily finished my last rounds of paper work for Hawaii State Compliance. That was quite a job and happy to have that work behind so more gardening is possible. There is lots to plant.

I am posting this without pictures as they are not coming through with the computer problems and I am trying to get help, but meanwhile….I will combine this weeks pics in next weeks blog.

Thanks for tuning in and wishing everyone a great week.

Aloha Nui,

Vicky
