I have butchered in the run before, it did not stress them out in fact most were at my feet looking for goodies.

Woke up with the sweats and a killer head ache so decided to check up on the crew.

I was just curious. My choice in chainsaw and weedeater is Stihl. I have an FS80 that I "HOT RODDED" and that at 26yrs is just getting due for replacement. Sad thing is that they don't really make one in that is comparable all the way around. I have never tried the green stuff not a big fan. Have a cub cadet that is an awesome rider but I hear the new ones are not the same.

luckily so far this roo has been quite friendly and pleasant, to the hens, to me, to DH, and to the 11 year old girl next door

of course he is still young ... but he obviously considers me and DH to be the "alpha roos" ...

Kaneke, which part of Hawaii are you from??
Any good hints for Maui good eats?

yes, Maui

LOTS and lots of good places to eat on Maui, depends on how fancy you want to get, how expensive, and what type of food

also ... where you are staying ...

really partial to Cary and Eddie's Hideaway ... in Kahului near the old train station ... their Hawaiian buffet is better than most luaus, and a whole lot cheaper (especially at lunch)

(we were married on the beach behind ... few people get married on Kahului Harbor beach)

for cheap and good "local" food ... Cupie's, in Kahului, near the library (used to be a drive-in)

Maui Tacos is different, good salsa of several different types (including pineapple) -- in Kaahumanu Mall, in Kihei
and their fish tacos are delicious

Alexander's .. in Kihei .. has really good seafood

if your budget can stand it, Mama's Fish House in Ku'au ... has great food

Kihei Caffe has good breakfasts

Hali'imaile General Store has great PR, supposed to be good Pacific Fusion food, but it's awfully noisy; we didn't bother to sit down

the Kau Kau corner, food court in the strip mall where Borders is, has an assortment, all good .. mostly locals there, not many tourists

most any of the restaurants at the golf courses are good food too

some of our favorite places aren't there any more, the economy has had a bunch of business casualties there too

anyone who need the lowdown on these from a repairman's point of view, call up Chris Brindle at J&I Power Equipment in Lacey/Olympia

My cousin and his wife, DIL and granddaughter are on Maui even as we speak. Me, I'm jealous: I've never been west of Cape Alava.

Thanks Kaneke but I think the fact that at 26 my weedeater is just now getting worn out and has never been any trouble speaks for it self. But for those not in the know yes this could be very helpful. See there are things that most don't know that make huge difference in the machime like does it have a true full crank.
