It is because of Him and Him alone that we live.

This line states that God is God.
God is the Living Water that is mentioned in John 4:
Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I will not be thirsty or have to come here to draw water.”
Water is very significant in Hawaii and everywhere in the world, for that matter. It is the source of life. We are 95% water and God is the water of life.

The ‘Io is the Hawaiian word for the Hawaiian Hawk.
But in this song, ‘IO represents the one true God. The God of the Bible, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
This line simply acknowledges that God is God.

One of the first questions that you may be asking yourself when you are looking for a company to take care of your home’s termite infestation is how much is termite control going to cost. Here in Hilo we have a number of termite control companies, but getting prices from them takes a lot of legwork. You will find that many companies in Hilo do not place prices on their websites and many don’t even have websites at all, so you are going to have to crack open the trusty HawaiianTel yellow pages and start dialing.
A lot of variables go into a quote for your home. The size and age of your house, the number of stories high it is and the extent of the infestation are all important factors in determining the rate that you will pay for tenting and other forms of termite control. This article will try to give you an idea of what you should expect to pay for termite control with those caveats in mind.
In Hilo, tenting or fumigation is one of the most frequently used types of termite control and it doesn’t come cheap. The cost of tenting depends on primarily on the volume or cubic feet of your house. The bigger your house is, the more it’s going to cost. Also you need to keep in mind that it is harder to tent a two story house than a single level house, so if your house is two stories it is going to cost more.
Typically a 1,300 square foot host will cost between $1,300 and $2,500 for tenting and lethal gas fumigation. And if you are fortunate enough to own a larger 2,500 square foot house, you can expect to pay $2,300 to $4,000.
When your home is tented you should expect that it will take 5 days and all pets, including fish, need to be cleared out of your home, so you will need to ensure that you and your keiki have a place to stay.
The price of chemical extermination for subterranean termites is easy to calculate. It is based on linear feet. All you do is measure the perimeter of your home and multiply by the rate that the pest control company is going to charge. Typically a 1,300 square foot home is about 160 linear feet. A home of this size will end up costing approximately $1,300 to $2,600 depending on the company that you call. While a larger 2,500 square foot home will probably cost you $2,000 to $3,400.
What is good about chemical extermination is that you usually will not have to leave your home while work is done, like you would if your house was being tented. Usually the termite control company will drill holes around the edge of your home and inject liquid chemicals or install termite bait.

Hilo is the rainiest city in the United States. We get an average of 127 inches of rain per year and on average it rains 275 days per year. The outskirts of our town often receive 200 inches of rain per year.
The most rainfall we received in a month was 51 inches. But that is nothing when you consider that we received 27 inches of rain in one day.
This little graph shows you the cumulative amount of rain that we have had so far for 2013. It looks like 2013 is shaping up to be another rainy year.
Here is a video that shows you what Hilo rain is like. You might think it’s raining hard in this video, but this is what I would consider light rain. Maybe I will post one of my own rain videos in the future that shows just how hard it can rain in Hilo.
Here is a music video by Kapena about Hilo rain. I believe that the musicians of Kapena are from Oahu, so they might not have lived through as much rain as we have but I guess our rain is famous enough to have songs written about it.
