As old hats at logging roads, we kinda wanted to give it a try, but not in our rental car (despite the old joke: what's the difference between a 4WD and a rental car? A rental car can go ANYWHERE).piglethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14544714000574510171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9602181.post-69605360737812219332012-08-19T16:54:51.748-07:002012-08-19T16:54:51.748-07:00You know you've been in Hawaii too long when y...You know you've been in Hawaii too long when you start classifying the lava.hederahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01696592301686568456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9602181.post-13548574721032675012012-08-19T16:51:43.339-07:002012-08-19T16:51:43.339-07:00Now, I can't prove this because I can't fi...Now, I can't prove this because I can't find the travel diary from 1991, but I'm fairly sure that when we were in Hawaii we took a terrifying jeep ride down into Waipi'o Valley and actually drove around on the flat.hederahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01696592301686568456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9602181.post-59523801855137492292012-08-11T22:09:03.899-07:002012-08-11T22:09:03.899-07:00I agree, Halema'uma'u must be seen to be b...I agree, Halema'uma'u must be seen to be believed. I've never seen it cut loose, even with steam; the one time we were there it was quiet. It still freaked me out. On that same trip we drove up to the top of Haleakala on Maui, too; also dormant but really impressive. <br /><br />If you'd like some vicarious lava, find Mark Twain's Letters from Hawaii. I read it at the time. When he was there, Halema'uma'u was brimful of red wet stuff and nobody could get closer than the main crater rim. His description is impressive and scary as hell.<br /><br />Now you've been initiated, remember this the next time you go to Yellowstone: the whole Yellowstone plateau is the caldera of a "super volcano." Where do you think they get all the hot springs? Shortly before our last visit, Scientific American ran an article on super volcanoes; I confess it made me a little edgy.hederahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01696592301686568456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9602181.post-70022019684635860982012-08-11T10:35:14.628-07:002012-08-11T10:35:14.628-07:00Congratulations on surviving the flight.

There's always the grocery store.<br /><br />I so sympathize about the flight; 2 weeks ago we flew back from Budapest... 11 hours in the air, 9 hour negative (earlier) time change, gah. Not to mention the cold I was coming down with.

He daughter saw my cousin's dog and asked, "What does she do?" Having grown up on a farm in Ireland, she was used to dogs doing things.<br /><br />In college one of my Physics professors was in a group that was studying the question "In the event of a nuclear war, what would be the best material to put in the bag of a vacuum cleaner to filter fallout from incoming air being drawn into a nuclear shelter?" The answer turned out to be "ordinary household debris" - the stuff that would be in shortest supply in a post-apocalyptic fallout shelter. But, in a pinch, I'm sure dog hair would work too. Soo you've got that.D.B.
