Aloha Steemit! From Hawaii | Live eruption happening right now |steemCreated with Sketch.

~Aloha Steemit~

I am introducing myself from the beautiful islands of Hawaii. I am on the Island of Oahu, I am a landscaper and have been the industry for 12 years. I have recently started a new website and been trying to grow my online presence. I have experience in tree work irrigation landscape installation and maintenance. Here is a little bit of what I do.

Thes are some of the projects I have worked on.

Installing an irrigation system.

I would love to help if anyone needs advice on landscaping and irrigation. I am working on making some how-to videos on irrigation that will be for complete beginners who have never glued or cut a pipe before. I am also interested in how people in other tropical places around the world are landscaping their yards and using irrigation.

Recently the active volcano on the big island of Hawaii has been changing the flow of lava under the island, the newest eruption has sent lava into newly formed fissures in the neighborhood of Leilani Estates.

Living on an active volcano makes you appreciate the great power of the earth and mother nature. the raw earth bursting out of the cracks in the road shows you that the people on this planet are just here temporarily, and this planet we call earth is much more than what we see on the surface.

This quiet neighborhood is now the center of the eruption.

In Hawaii, the volcano is the most sacred thing, Madame Pele is the Fire Goddess, she is creator of the Hawaiian Islands and she deserves the utmost respect.

With family members just down the road, I am keeping a close eye on the events unfolding. just as I was writing this another fissure opened up and started erupting.

Thanks For Looking
