I’ll lead off this quarterly thread!
The rains across No’u’ea shut down the iron horse until today, when the work crews hit the main to clear debris. Here Rocky pulls a work caboose with an exhausted track crew and reefer of refreshments just as the sun appears at the end of long weekend.
It took Kid-zilla and I an hour to get a train running today. Next week, we’ll put the plantation tracks in order.
This time of year, with the daisies in bloom, we don’t always put out our buildings. This is where the town of Haluku’ilio would be. For now, we are enjoying the change of scenery! The foreground plant is a native, Pa’u o Hi’iaka (skirt of Hi’iaka). Hi’iaka, incidentally, is Pele’s sister.
