Hilo is not an island, it's a town on the Big Island of Hawaii. We live half the year in Puna the other half in Nevada.
We would love to live on the Kona Coast. Have been to Maui, and don't really think we want to go back there. What is making you change Islands?
go check out my post in the "whiners" section. It has to do with a lot of things. But what is running through it all is that things are lining up in a good way, and the Spirits of the Islands sift out who lives where & when and which island... I like it better on Maui, my hubby is building the bio-diesel plant(s) and my son can easily go to montessori there (no waiting list)...
