Oops, I forgot to point out that the Hale Pili is a "Little Grass Shack," famed in song and story. The Museum has disassembled the Hale, to more closely study the methods and materials used in it's construction, and replace much of the Pili grass & Uki Uki leaf lashings, as well as several of the wooden supports that have deteriorated too much in the 200+ years since the Hale was first raised on Kaua‘i. |
