Tonight, I realized I almost made a grave and irreparable mistake: deleting all my pictures from 2003-2007 (the albums were sitting in the trash!). I had previously lost these pictures when my hard drive crashed circa 2006, but luckily had found a CD upload. Many of these pictures include my 10-day visit to Hawaii Summer 2004. Below are some of the pictures from the National Volcano Park on the Big Island. While many of the volcanoes are extinct, one is continuously erupting. Though you can walk  4-5 miles on it’s inactive parts, a helicopter ride (for a handsome fee I imagine) will fly you towards the active part where you will see great amounts of lava pouring into the Pacific 1000 feet below and creating this aesthetic hue of blues. I also include waterfall cascade from the Road to Hana, the Hawaiian Jungle, in Maui, where we had the bittersweet opportunity of finding a red sand beach that was additionally a nude beach…..for older….much older men.
