I think a lot of those dumb laws were written a long time ago and Hawaii, as a state, has only been writing them since 1959. I actually had a pretty limited selection of dumb laws...
I'm really looking forward to the next part of the story where we go into the Geology and Fauna and Flora. It really is an impressive place. I know a guy that lives in Wyemeai Canyon. Among other things he harvests wild coffee every year. Amazing.
Thanks for the kind words Nancy!
