Black netting around a building project near Hawi, Hawaii

This netting is designed, not so much to catch the wind, as to not get blown away by it. It was surrounding a project to build a new water tank for agricultural use, to replace the Kohala Ditch, which no longer holds water.

Downtown Hawi

A family of four walks past a building in Hawi, Hawaii — The main highway through Hawi is Akoni Pule Hwy., though it looks more like Abbey Road in this photo!

This week’s Sunday Stills challenge theme is ‘Your Home Town.’ See more responses here. Downtown Hawi is only about a block long, but it can be a busy little place, and popular with tourists on their way to and from Pololu Valley.
