		<description><![CDATA[A friend on the mainland is planning her family&#8217;s visit to Kaua&#8217;i and told me how sad she was that the Kamalani Pavilion and its artwork had burned down. Since this will be her first visit, I&#8217;m not sure where she heard about the pavilion, maybe a recent update of a visitor&#8217;s guide mentions it.

		<description><![CDATA[Queen&#8217;s Bath in Princeville is notorious for its change of moods. It&#8217;s one of those controversial places outed by the Kaua&#8217;i Revealed guidebook as an undiscovered gem: a turquoise and emerald pool set in black lava with views of Bali Hai. Except it&#8217;s also a lava bench on the North Shore of Kaua&#8217;i exposed to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just realized that the Eo e Emalani i Alaka&#8217;i festival is this weekend in Koke&#8217;e. I don&#8217;t usually mention events on this blog (since I don&#8217;t write often enough) but this is one of my favorite events on Kaua&#8217;i, and I urge anyone who can make it to go see it.
The festival consists of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Earth Day (April 22nd) was last Tuesday, and thanks to my daughter, I was actually encouraged to do something. Her preschool had planned to go to a local beach and pick up trash, so I joined them. We&#8217;re a one-car household, and I didn&#8217;t have the car, so I did the right thing and bicycled [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The octopus tree is one of those non-native species that most people see as typical of a tropical climate like Hawaii. Known as Schefflera and umbrella tree on the mainland, many people recognize it as a typical house plant that grows wild here. But most mainlanders have never seen it in bloom, and right now [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been avoiding a day-by-day, injunction-by-injunction commentary about the superferry, but on Thursday evening, I attended another protest against the ferry and then a &#8220;town hall&#8221; meeting with state governor Linda Lingle.
I had several reservations about this meeting. First, the meeting announcement in the newspapers revealed that it was really all about the &#8220;unified command&#8221; [...]]]></description>

The author, Charley Foster, seems to be a recent transplant from Utah, which means he has had many of the same experiences I [...]]]></description>

I was just reminded that Kauai&#8217;s civil defense sirens are tested on the first working day of every month at 11:45 a.m. with a continuous 1-minute tone. The sirens are located along the coasts and in populated areas inland to warn people of tsunamis mostly, but also [...]]]></description>

We shop at Kukui Grove Mall at least every other week, so last time I was shocked to find the view of the mountains now blocked by the Costco under construction.
