Bob and I bought a small, redwood house on top of a very steep driveway(45degree) on a beautiful mountain. I fell in love with the land behind the house, called "watershed" here. There were 20 acres of conservation land with large Christmas Berry trees and huge volcanic boulders in the back yard. We would have to add on to the house to qualify for the mortgage so we designed an addition and made a cathedral ceiling in the living room and some lanais on each side of our new master bedroom. Mid Pac lumber dumped all the timbers in the road below( Nihi St). Day laborers carried these huge, heavy pieces of lumber up the steep driveway(about eleven men). Bob stayed in Rome. I should have but, I was so excited to finally, after ten years of renting, own a home, I came back early. Big mistake..
