The latest heatwave, most likely weather changes caused by the Kilau’ea eruptions, has turned the one-bedroom unit in the “old folks home” into an oven of sorts. The bedroom is the worst area since it has only one window and no cross-ventilation. Thus, the bedroom has been cleaned and closed off.
The airbed, courtesy the Sand Island homeless shelter, has been relocated to the tiny living room. There are two windows servicing the combined living room and kitchen. Cross-ventilation is accomplished by wedging an empty plastic Toilet Duck® container between the open entrance door and door jamb. Instant studio!
Addendum: Since there is nothing of value in the one-bedroom unit, there is no need to lock the door. Hence, the makeshift doorstop can be left unattended day and night.
