People's Park

Work is continuing on the temple landscaping, especially on the Western side. Recently we created a rising stairway of faux lava, a path guiding pilgrims to ascend the small knoll to the circle of giant boulders we call People's Park. The paving stones were poured and while the concrete was still somewhat wet, a special vinyl mold was hammered lightly into the surface. This creates the indents and shapes of natural lava rock. We also added our own Hawaiian petroglyphs. The rocks will turn black as the micro-critters begin to inhabit the surface. This area will be planted more in the months ahead, when the rains relent a bit.
