Most of my years living in Maui have been spent in a couple houses on Ulumau. I love this little street- and love coming home to it.
Its nothing glamorous. Not much to look at. It a little Hawaii side street lined with houses- all crowned with rusty corrugated tin roofs. My house is the same- a weathered and termite weakened structure with little or no glory. But I love the airiness, the open windows, the giant mango tree that shades the dirt patch which is where our front lawn should be, and I love the mountain view at the end of the street... its the little things. Always the little things.
And in the end, its just home. And i am so delighted to be here.
