Spectacular. Keep the pictures coming. Need to get my camera fixed so I can get some pictures, too.

The news is full of the cost of living on The Islands. Are they accurate?

Great shot.
Ginger farms are big over in the Hilo area.
I miss the Big Island but not island life or prices for fuel.
Have a great weekend

Sinann,
Every Island is different when it comes to cost. It all depends upon your standard of living. We rent. The Big Island is lower cost than Honolulu environs. Think winter folks.....no fuel oil for a furnace. Plus the Island can be crossed in less than three hours. It's kinda hard to us alot of gas here. Besides we own a Prius.
