Warm, Dry Weather

We have been experiencing the driest and warmest winter in years here in the islands. It was made for gorgeous weather, but our side of the Big Island is now officially in a drought. Seems strange when the rest of the country is experiencing extreme snow and rain. Apparently whenever the mainland encounters an El Nino year, the islands experience drought like conditions. Here at Coconut Cottage B&B, we've had to purchase water three times already. Normally our water comes from the heavens and is stored in our 15,000 gallon catchment tank. After going through two particulate and one UV filtration systems, the water is drinkable and I have to say the best water I've ever tasted.

So come on over now to get out of the cold mainland weather and enjoy some of the best weather we've had. Aloha, Coconut Cottage Bed & Breakfast

Oooooh how I wish I could just hop on a plane! But interviews and training newbies consumes my life *sigh*

I was just dreaming of coming back for a visit the other day, and wishing you guys had a blog so I could see what life is like over there -- and then I saw the link on your site! Thanks for the updates. :)
