A two month "catch up" issue as September was a blur of work for this year's Oktoberfest... Mike volunteered to "help"... October was full of big happenings on da' Island!!
The project to clear more land for the sheep is at the stage Mike is dropping the BIG trees.... Leslie & Buddy volunteer to stand next to each to estimate the height, then get to watch the crash when it comes down!!
Yes, the hot topic here is the pace of the current lava flow from Kilueau... moving thru the outskirts of a quaint, old sugar plantation town... it also has our daily, after work "watering hole"!!! No, the CGR is not involved, we are on the slopes of Mauna Loa volcano... it's not extinct, but has been "sleeping" for three decades.
Mike joined the Rotary Club to meet the town's business leaders. The day he joined their big annual fundraising Oktoberfest was only 6 weeks away and the chairman had an accident.... so Mike and a doctor teamed up to pull it together..... hard work, but a great event. We hosted many of our island friends, especially those threatened by the lava!!
