Kaihu Kaihu is like a lake on a sunny day, calm, peaceful, or in one word, serene. The only things that remind you of the town are the general store, garage and the local hotel. Kaihu has changed over the years at one time there used to be people bustling about. But there weren't enough jobs so people left to go to the towns and cities. The younger people here now just stay until they're old enough to go out to work. They eventually get married and only return during the holidays or when a relation dies. One day is much the same as the other here until Friday arrives. The hotel is surrounded by cars until everyone leaves to go somewhere for a party. Saturday afternoon is the same as Friday. Then Sunday comes and once again everything is serene.
