Macrobiotic Cook who lectures all over.
We hacked at some huge cane grass all day and got down on the weed waker.
You have to keep the grass around the solar panels highly maintained. Any shadow can inhibit
the capacity to catch the sun so weed whacking and cutting using the swing blade are an
important grounds task. Some of this cane grass gets so huge it can be 20 feet tall with huge gnarly stalks.
When its all cut its like crab grass but when it isn't maintained its a bear.
After lunch we made an awesome vegan Macrobiotic meal and had a pretty easy going day.
Lunch and Dinner are some of my most prized moments here. Everyone is a great cook and signs up
for a meal. 10-25 people sit down regularly for Breakfast Lunch and Dinner and its a real treat to
enjoy a great meal with so many people every day.
After Lunch Burnadette, Lyssa, Jim and I went to a local hot spot called Warm Pond. Ocean water
fills this little man made inlet and its just so warm. Fish are all over, people are just hangn out, taking a quick dip or swimming all day

| Wednesday Kirtan Potluck |
Every Wednesday Polestar opens up its doors to the community and hosts Kirtan. Group singing
of some traditional Hawaiian songs, and others from around the world. Later everyone gathers
in the main living room and has a potluck. I met some really friendly and knowledgeable people from
around Pahoa. Such a fulfilling day...
