HelloI no longer run my engineering design service (Rick Frazier Design) due to a number of factors, not the least of which is a passion for writing. Thank you to all of my faithful customers and affiliates over the years. I live in Volcano, Hawaii. Volcano is located on Hawaii Island (also known as the Big Island) at about the 4000 foot elevation. As I am on the east, or windward side of the island, we don't have the typical weather you might think of for Hawaii. Volcano about 27 miles from Hilo. Honolulu (where you would find Waikiki beach) is several islands and over 200 miles away on the island of Oahu. Maui is an island in between and is known for the popular Kaanapali beach. The Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is right next door, and provides inspiration to our artists and many of our visitors. Volcano is a small community of about 2,800 people, nestled in the rain forest. It is quiet and peaceful, with average daily high temperatures in the low 70's year round. It does rain a lot, so folks tend to stay inside and let the creative juices flow into their individual passions. As a result, we see a wide variety of artistic media and topics covered, even by a relatively low number of folks. As with most web sites of this type, it is continually changing, so we advise checking back often for new content. Please take some time to explore, and if you like what you see, we hope you support my activities by buying my books and other products. |
