House Pad In The Jungle

OK, my son Byron here just made the big 30! Your looking at a pineapple upside down cake I made..original huh? He's waiting for me to snap the photo. I can't believe we forgot to sing- almost unheard of (serious)

Below, younger son Jesse- who just made 28yrs a couple weeks ago.

You can tell he takes himself seriously like me? (lol)

 I'll spare you of all the sentimentality.. only going to mention that he had a lot cleared beginning some time last year. There is still plenty of Strawberry Guava (we love them) but they happen to be more invasive in this area) -pictured beside very old Ohia trees, with (a huge fungus) you may of seen posted here-growing midway. Well, it fell recently- second shot (sniff), but I think it's a fine specimen!!

He invited my husband and I up yesterday to take a look at some of the work. They discussed sensible things like square footage, the need for Thompson's water seal (rain here has a tendency to warp  wood fast) and roofing that would be next. But it was bad enough that I couldn't seem to stay focused or serious-my dog even followed me through the bushes sniffling and whining impatiently- while I snapped pictures!! Then, jumped on the table trying to get in-between..

She thought her tail made a fine hat? Look at him..he's seriously considering getting a dog (heh heh)

 Carpet of dense ferns below.. enlarge the last one to get an idea~

Ya, that's a tail in there~
