County readies safe lava viewing area

March 5th, 2008

As fingers of lava now slowly creep past Royal Gardens subdivision, Mayor Harry Kim knows the county needs to set up a safe lava viewing area for people. The lava, now heading to cross old highway 130, always brings spectators and yesterday as many as 75 people were there to watch Pele in action. County workers began setting up parking areas, portable bathrooms, traffic controls and a trail that may be ready in a few days for lava junkies.

Lava already cut off the main motorcycle path used by the remaining Royal Gardens hold out, Jack Thompson who has been getting quite a bit of attention lately based off of Pele’s choosen liquid path. I saw he walked 3 miles to the house but haven’t seen anything else that confirms he left for good. We’re pullin’ for ya Jack. You’ve had the right idea all these years! Get out the gin and make your offering!

Things are looking great for Jack. I helicoptered into Jack’s house on March 8 for 3 days and we dined and conversed for hours. He says it’s life in Paradise, and after repeat visits by myself to Jack’s cedar chateau……..there is no place like it on the planet. I will continue to return to partake in Jack’s exceptional hospitality and get totally immersed in the surroundings. Jack, you are one in a million and I thank you for the privilege of being your returned invited guest. Have you tell me “Come back any time” says volumes.
