Here at Volcano Guest House, we are proud of comfort we provide while keeping our energy use very low. Janice Crowl, author of Container Gardening in Hawaii, has a wonderful blog called Hawaii Gardening. She visited our place recently and did a piece with lots of pictures about my pond landscaping experiments, using native marsh plants, so naturally, I link you to that....

"When we got home, our 7-year old son told his class about ways to save energy - solar water heating, windows, sweaters and clotheslines. He learned at the Guest House."
