Since this is my first Blog here, I will tell you a little about one of my favorite places. On my trips to The Big Island of Hawaii over the last few years, I have always meant to go to the Green Sand Beach (Papakolea)on the very southern tip of the island. There are only 2 such beaches in the world. It is formed by a gem stone,Olavine or Peridot and is washed out of the volcanic rock that surrounds the beach.

It is a short, well 1/2 hour or so walk or a 4X4 drive to the beach from the “parking ” area. If on the island, ask the locals about it. You have to see it! very Rugged coastline, surf pounding in, the cliffs to the west about 1/4 mile away are 60 feet high and if you fall off……they tell me you better have a good map of Antarctica with you.
I love Hawaii and will someday live there. I especially love the Kona Coffee. I fell in love with it the first trip there and have stuck to it ever since. I sell the coffee that I import from Kona Kailua and my customers love it. It is known all over the world as one of the best coffees around. Full bodied, bold flavor with a very mild feel. It is the best! If you can find it try it, you will fall in love.
