A man from Arizona buys a piece of land in the middle of a lava field while vacationing in Hawaii and returns to the island to find a deeper sense of home and build his midlife crisis tropical dream house. In this assemblage of journal entries during the trying year of construction, the author tells some of the secrets of rural Hawaii, revealing her dark underbelly. Meet the crazy neighbors in Puna's "open-air asylum," go on late night lava walks, join a lynch mob against the coqui frogs, and find the true meaning of 'aloha' in the jungle. "What do you do when you've run away from home-again-and you still want to keep running? This is a story of a relationship, not with just a house, but with a vision of home. I could have read twice as long a book with as much excitement-it was heartbreaking and hilarious to watch Gilmore's poignant love affair disintegrate. As a reader, I was rooting for the love affair to last, and I was stubbornly optimistic when it didn't . but finally, he realizes one night, while holding his dog and swinging in the hammock, that he has built a perfect home in paradise-for someone else." -Gillian Kendall, author of "Mr. Ding's Chicken Feet" ." I laughed myself silly and my mouth dropped open in amazement. The man is a true original." -David Henry Sterry, author of "Chicken, Self-Portrait of a Young Man for Rent"Binding Type: Paperback

Not for tall or larger women.
Style: 9 Diamonds(Gold)
I made some Modifications to this as it is definitely not meant for taller and/or larger women. I would not purchase again but only for that reason- it’s a nice piece of jewelry

Fun, cute, good value
Color: Pink
I got these for the toddler, who is living her best life as a princess. She is allowed to wear these for dress up and she absolutely adores them. I apply them to the apples of her cheeks, on the tip of her nose, and on her arms and ankles like fancy bracelets. At this rate, they won't last long, and because they are used for play, I end up pulling them off the rugs and upholstery for days afterward. It's like a game for mom!
They are lovely and fun and she absolutely adores them. The only downstar is for the adhesive quality. Now, this might be just me because I received them during a severe winter storm and they stayed in the mailbox for several days of below zero weather, but the sticky backing peels off quite easily from many of them. It's easy enough to fix with the tweezers that are supplied, but you might want to pay attention to that detail. At bath time, I am finding many pieces of the tape no longer attached to a jewel. I don't know if my bunch were damaged because of the cold, but if you're planning to go to the club, I would bring extras. If you're using them for playtime, just beware that you might find them in all kinds of unexpected places. They definitely won't hold up to bath time, so take them off first, to avoid clogging up the plumbing.
