Kona – The quake, the race and the coffee

As you know, we had a little earthquake here (just a 6.6). Although that might slow others down, just a week later we open our doors to welcome the Ironman participants. Something like 1793 racers and then there are their supporters, friends and family. We are definately full this week! You can watch live video at http://Ironman.Com

Speaking of coffee, I have finally been scheduled to have 5 acres of macadamia nut trees plowed under so I can get a few thousand new coffee trees planted. Clearing may begin as early as Monday!

If you would like to order some coffee, please use the checkout discount code IRONMAN and I’ll take 10% off anything you order! This special goes through October 31st.

Please note that no coffee will ship today because many roads are closed up there due to the race. Thanks for the kind words and thoughts during our recent quake, but all is well! :)
