Worked for Joan on thursday. Dug out her drainage ditch (again) and refilled it with rocks... Took lots of little breaks in which she gave me lots of tips for how to deal with everything from spider mites to home ownership dreams. Sent me home with a big pile of Papaya's, and I got the rest of the coconuts that I couldn't fit in the truck last week.
Stopped by the recycling yard on the way home to get some cardboard. Found a lot of plastic guttering in very reasonable condition. Couldn't resist...
Friday we made our pilgriimage to Lahaina for breadfruit and mango's and some time at baby beach. Also got the MB safety sticker, and stopped by the Wailuku library - classic old library up there on the hill - and consulted a topo map there that confirms Gary was way off in telling me that the property is 650 -750 feet above sea level. The hana highway is below 600 feet, so I don't know where in the blazes the misinformation I have been working with came from!
We also put some ads up at Mana and the Maui News so we'll soon be getting ready for another round of renting fun. Hell, we need the ready cash!
In a minute I'll head around to Rob Storey's and help him load some stuff into his truck, and check out some stuff he has for me... Timber and concrete I think... Then its back here to work for J & M I guess...
