I've got the digital camera along, along with PaintShop Pro, and the computer seems to be connecting fine via AOL, albeit at 28.8. So, stay tuned, and we'll pass a little sunshine your way tomorrow..:O)

2001.04.20 TOO SHORT ... We've been runnning all over his island!! When is the vacation going to start?? Actually, we've had a lot of fun, taking a guided tour around the island of Hawaii, swimming, and kayaking. The tour took us to the "Volcano", the national park that contains ... the active volcano. Unfortunately, because of that activity, we were not able to get near any fresh lava flows, but we were able to view several of the flows and craters from past eruptions.
The whole island is ROCK (duh!!). And some of it is downright inhospitable. The west side of the island is the dry side, getting about 6-12 " of rain, depending on the site. It is also the side that is experiencing a lot of growth, new resorts, and residential building.
We spent a day hiking and picnicing with friends and took the following photo.

I almost wasn't going to post it ... I was wearing some new (smaller) shorts that overemphasize the weight I still need to lose. But, what the heck. We're all friends. We're off tomorrow for more swimming, and a visit to HAWI on the north side of the island. Then, it is back to pack, and off to real civilization.. It has been fun, but much too short. I apologize to those that follow the food & exercise journal. It has been a little too hectic to keep it up. But it will resume on Monday.
Thank You for Visiting!!
