This drawing of a fenced-off vacant lot, drawn from the beach and looking toward Paiko drive on the other side, is called The House On Paiko. This is where Jamie grew up. Sometime after she and her family left this property, the house was torn down and this is what remains, still some 15-plus years later. Jamie tells me the coconut trees are no longer there, but this one large tree still stands. Someone has added a swing to it, and nestled up in the tree is a wooden plank. Perhaps the same plank that her brother would sit on, scouting the quality of the surf before paddling out.
