Maui
After I finished work at Larry's, I spent
some of my construction money on an inter-island tour. I first went
to Maui, then Kauai, then back to Oahu for more carousing with Kent &
Rosemary.
On Maui, I visited my college friend
Conrad Lewis, his wife Linda, and their Hawaiian-born daughter Mua.
Conrad & Linda lived "Upcountry"
on Maui, at an elevation where the climate resembled Santa Barbara, California.
I had a nice visit with them, and had
a chance to explore yet another island. |

A view from the summit of Maui's Haleakala
volcano.
In the distance are the two giant volcanoes
on the Big Island. Mauna Kea with its observatories and tropical
skiing is on the left.
On the right is the still-active shield
volcano Mauna Loa. No skiing here, not even any roads. The
summit is a great hiking destination, though. Some day I'd like to
go there.
Here's a link to the reverse view back
from Mauna
Kea. |
