*****Three Car Accidents Over Two Days*****
Earlier last week there was an unfortunate rush of significant car accidents here on Kauai.  On Monday “Tree Tunnel” road which marks the historic entrance into the Poipu area was the scene of a two car accident that shut down the road.  Both drivers were transported to Wilcox hospital.

On Tuesday a two people lost their lives when a head on collision occurred between two cars on Kuhio Highway, both were residents of Kauai.  The wife and 6 month old child of the Lihue man that lost his life were in critical condition and were airlifted to Queens in Honolulu. The infant was discharged from Queens on Wednesday and the mother, who is at Wilcox hospital, was reported in fair condition as of Friday. Kuhio Highway was closed from 4:30 to 8:30 pm.

At the time of the Highway being reopened another accident occurred in Lihue by the Veterans Center where the driver of a Toyota flipped over onto it’s roof after being struck by a Chevrolet SUV.  The occupants of both cars appeared to not have any serious injuries.

*****Kukui’ula Breaks Ground On Clubhouse*****

A demonstration of commitment was held by Kukui’ula Development on Tuesday with a blessing and ground breaking ceremony for their $100 million recreational centerpiece to the 1,010 acre Poipu luxury development.  This “Plantation Core” phase includes a 20,000 square foot clubhouse and a 18 hole Golf course and Spa.  These are expected to be completed by 2010.  To position themselves in this economic downturn, both on a national and local level, Kukui’ula expects this will carry them through into 2010 and will provide local jobs for our island.  Work will continue on the home sites and the retail shopping center which will come online in 2009.  For more information on sales please contact me.  

*****Raft Made From Junk Crosses Pacific*****
Marcus Eriksen and Joel Paschal spent three months as sea on a raft that they made from junk and landed safely at Honolulu harbor on Wednesday.  The two “eco-mariners” had made a boat from 15,000 plastic bottles and the fuselage of a Cessna 310 and set sale from Long Beach Harbor in California on June 1 with the goal to raise awareness about plastic debris.  The men posted online videos and blogs all along their trip with the help of Eriksens fiancé who stayed home to take care of the online entries and fundraising.  But they nearly didn’t make it when the two nearly ran out of food.  At traveling ½ mile per hour the duo realized they did not have enough food for the trip, so they called Roz Savage who was crossing the Pacific in a rowboat and the three hooked up for a dinner and supplies exchange.  Savage’s portable water maker broker and so the men helped her out with an extra they had and she gave them some of her extra food.
Paschal and Eriksen are working on a documentary about their voyage along with their mission statement of banning single use plastics.
