Our
purchase of the vacant lot in Hawi is held up at the title company
over the release of an old mortgage on the property. So we wait.
We're dying to get up there and start surveying and hacking away at
the overgrown bushes and trees, but there's no point until we
actually own the property.
We leave for Japan on February 14th
(a nice Valentine's Day present, eh?) so we're hoping this gets
resolved before then. We're also hoping the winter clothes being
shipped from home get here before we leave. We're going to need them
in Japan, where it will be 30 to 40 degrees cooler than here. The clothes were shipped a month ago and have been stuck
in Honolulu since January 29th. Apparently they don't
send them over to the outer islands until the shipping container is
full. So we wait. Tamar has a few things we can borrow for our
Japanese winter, but some last minute shopping may be in order if
that box doesn't get here soon. Not that Deborah will complain about
having to do more clothes shopping, but I will.
And now for something completely different...
