So, we have been buggering around with non-P/c type stuff. Showing people around etc. Yesterday we went on a mission to Lahaina to look at a cheap piece of crap F150. The 4wd worked, but no windshield wipers or signals, and no harnesses or anything to wire them up. So we passed. Couldn't really find a good spot ot park to pick the small mangos at the catholic school, which is the only tree that has really ripe fruit yet. But it will be a good summer over that side for mangos I think.

Before the rains tapered off I put in a bunch of trees that hopefully will grow well and prevent views of our gulch from maltes barn, or more to the point, will hide their barn from us as we move around the gulch... PLanted about 10 moluccan albizzias, 1 marang, 1 pterocarpus, 2 casuarina, 3 qld maple, a litchi, a coconut and a malabar chestnut. THey are all pretty close together, so that hopefully will encourage them to grow up quickly, and reach full canopy quickly... then once they have had a headstart we can seque in bamboo's and rainbow euc's.
Simulatneously put in a bunch more peanut in takako's food forest, also some cacao and hawaiian chili plants.
and, a hedge of multiplex alphonse karr in "roo's paddock" which is the space between the barn and the containers, yeah?
