A few random pics

Ross and I on the summit of Mauna Kea. It couldn't have been much warmer than 40F

Me with the Ki'i at The Place of Refuge. A few minutes later is when Ross proposed.

The pahoehoe lava flows. Pahoehoe is more fluid and cools in ripples and undulations. Aa is much more rubble like.

Hawaiian graffiti. White coral from the beach contrasts so well against the dark lava rock along the roads.

Right across the street and down the block from our hotel. The Iron Man Triathlon took place on October 11...we just missed it...

To and from the shores you run into the evacuations signs. I particularly enjoy that the stick figure on the enterance sign thinks he is about to catch a wave.

Along 190 on our way to Saddle Road and Mauna Kea. It sort of looks like the mountain is angry.

A sign at the zoo on a tree that bore no fruit.
