Uauahi

Smoke On The Water

While driving north from Na'ālehu to Hilo, just reaching the scenic overlook along highway 11, I spied this plume of Volcanic Steam rising out of the ocean where the lava meets the sea. Normally, you would never see this because the VOG (Volcanic Fog) is so thick it looks like clouds.  The winds changed enough to see this in the distance.

Another View

This view of where the lava meets the ocean is looking from Kalapana towards Na'ālehu.  It is a stunning view of the steam rising into the air.  Uauahi means smokey.

It's our rainy season here, so that means chilly mornings and heavy rain.  Lucky I live Hawai'i.  A hui hou!

A Relaxing Sunset

As Hurricane Felicia fades away, a beautiful sunset appeared through the clouds tonight. The remnant feeder bands have produced much rain, but beautiful rainbows as well.

A glass of Iced Tea on the lanai, the sounds of soft guitar playing Hawaiian Slack Key songs, and the drawing near evening begs for a good night slumber.

Tomorrow will be a good day.

Aloha
