Our errands today…

June 10, 2013 by Rachel

We did errands in Hilo today from around 8 am-6 pm.

First stop, community center proved fruitless (closed).

On our way into Hilo, we picked up a hitchhiker who was SO grateful.  He was on his way to CU Hawaii, but he didn’t know where it was, so it was good we helped him get there.

We drove into Hilo for the cheapest gas.  Around the corner is Garden Exchange where we got pallets last week.  They welcomed us to come back often, so we did.  Another 10 pallets loaded!  We’ll use them for building a composting toilet, floors for our tents, and maybe even walls for a screened structure.

We visited offices for Parks and Recreation and Forestry and Wildlife (obtained two permits for getting Tree Ferns).

We didn’t get library cards because it is closed on Sundays and Mondays.

We didn’t do laundry because we forgot soap but decided to leave our soap in the car from now on.  🙂 Not doing laundry enabled us to sit in on the Hawaiian Acres Community Association Board Meeting at 6:30 pm (hence access to WIFI and the post).

Having a Hawaiian Acres Farmers Market is being discussed right now– oddly enough, a controversial issue!

 

 

Blessings to all!

    Can’t wait to see photos of how you repurpose. The pallets. Your ideas for them sound great. Love and hugs.

    Hello guys! Thinking of you both and love hearing of your adventures since you were last here in Burbank for Church. My one trip to Hawaii was in 1980 when my USMC unit went to your Island, landing at Hilo airport, and taking a bus ride to the Army Military training center up past your place to the Pachaloha (SP) training center, a base centered in the middle of a volcanic crater. The road went right through the Parker Ranch which was beautiful. I can see why you picked your location…..for your adventure in life together
    Aloha…marc & marsha
