Description: This site in the Village of Shimizu, Island of Babelthuap, Republic of Palau, grew enough wood volume (Bagras eucalyptus, Eucalyptus deglupta) in 11 years to build the house, "pay" the portable sawmiller with half of the wood, and still have considerable wood left over. The slender trees in the center middle ground are betel nut palm (Areca catechu), and the palms in the background are coconut (Cocos nucifera.) Banana trees can also be seen behind the house. November, 1985.
