Flooding along the end of Kekio Road behind the post office is obvious from this vantage point on Lihimauna Road. Note the new steel-frame homes going up.

Kaaawa's Engine 21 was already pumping on Polinalina Road between Hauhele and Linimauna.

Remember the banana patch at the top end of Hiiaka Road? The bananas are long gone, as is the hillside, now being excavated to create another house lot.

Those waterfalls end up in Makaua Stream. I was standing next to the bridge on Kamehameha Highway for this photo.

Suddenly there was a little stream under the banyan tree on the lower side of our property.
