Harvesting bamboo for bean poles in my Haiku Maui garden Here in Haiku Maui we're lucky to have access to wild bamboo plants with extremely tall stalks, that we can just cut down with a machete.  They can be very useful in the garden, and it's a renewable resource that's free. I love to use them for pole beans and for staking plants.  After a couple of uses you can just toss them out. When they're fresh and green they are very beautiful and smooth.  One length will make 2 or 3 bean poles. This trellis will still need some strings in between the poles, but at least it's a sturdy frame that wii withstand our strong winds.  Haiku Maui is a great place to grow a garden or some fruit trees.  There's no reason why you can't produce your own food all year round in Hawaii.  Do you need any Haik... 08/02/2011

Maya Yoga Studio in Haiku Maui HI 96708I have started a journey into the land of yoga, right in my own neighborhood.  Maya Yoga Studio might be called remote and out of the way, unless you live in the Huelo part of Haiku Maui.  It's a small and friendly studio with lots of aloha and a casual atmosphere.  As a beginner I found it very easy to join in the group and get started with their drop-in classes on Monday and Wednesday mornings.

Random thoughts about an old truck in Upcountry Haiku Maui HI Up near DeCoite's Packing House in upcountry Haiku Maui you'll find this classic scene. It's a great place for taking pictures if you like decay.   We dropped off a cow for processing about a week ago and we'll be picking her up in boxes on Thursday.  Nothing like grass fed Maui beef! I wouldn't have believed this old gas pump worked until I saw somebody come over and actually use it!  I suppose the same could be said for the old truck.  I suppose one day they'll say the same thing about us when we're old and tired.   Until then, I'm available to help you buy or sell a home in Haiku Maui, or anywhere on this island for that matter.

Happy Memorial Day - take a moment to reflect We are all so lucky to be living in this country, and to have a life that's relatively secure compared to so many other places in the world.  Just look around at the misery that goes on in countries that have no freedom as we know it.  It comes at a cost - the many lives lost to protect our way of life.   Memorial Day is set aside for us to remember those brave people who sacrificed their lives so that we can benefit.  Take a few minutes to think about those who are no longer with us.  Were they your relatives?  Perhaps a parent, a sibling or your child?  Everyone has been touched in some way, and we all can be thankful, today and everyday.      THANK YOU.  You will be remembered.  You will be celebrated on this day.   All pictures taken at ... 05/30/2011
