ohhh, i almost forgot my really good news, rah and i just bought a lot in Hawaii (for our retirement home) its on the big island, about 30 min south of Hilo and 10 min from the beach. It is near the volcano but i read that its not considered deadly?? anyway, i'm sooo excited, of course, i can't afford to go see it for a year or two, but thats ok, i'm closer to my dream of living near the ocean!
