The most informative, very appreciated

Learn how to share? This valley is sacred to me and my wife just as much as any other Hawaiian, and we can’t visit because all the hermits growing drugs don’t want anyone seeing their crops.

hermits growing drugs. not so far from the truth. there are farmers but they grow different crops

My grandparents lived in Waimea for about 40 years. Thinking about taking my wife next month. I havent been back in 20+ years. Kinda sad knowing the island isnt going to be anything like it was when we were kids. Im sure Waipio has changed as well. Tourists ruin everything they touch.

Everybody is a tourist there. Ain’t nobody native to Hawaii

[@popo_53]

@@jakedeutscher Not sure where you get your information by my family by definition are native Hawaiians.

[@jakedeutscher]

@@popo_53 no human is native to volcanic formations. Just because your people were there first doesnt mean they are native to the land. Every human there came from elsewhere originally

[@popo_53]

@jakedeutscher so what youre saying is theres no such thing as an Earthling because this whole rock used to be molten right?
