Palms and a view

Agricultural land with a view of the ocean in North Kohala, Hawaii

This house has a view of the ocean and a couple of palm trees nearby. What’s not to like? The view, however, does face northeast, which is where the trade winds blow from. If those winds carry driving rain, the view would likely be gone and the preferred side of the house would be the opposite one, which faces inland and into the trees.
