"If you don't know where you're going, any bus will do"

Volcano, Hawaii. Mari and I came to Volcano for some monster hikes and got what we asked for! The viewing of the surface flows of lava were WAY COOL (actually, they were WAY HOT!). Plus, the hike out to Pu'u O'o was great in spite of Pele getting back at Mari by wrenching her knee for disrupting her mana as she seems to do every other trip - Pele that is; not Mari. Mari learned her lesson. I guess Pele just wants to make sure she doesn't forget.

	Lava flow creeping across surface		More lava flow creeping across surface
	Still more lava flow creeping across surface		And yet more lava flow creeping across surface
	And yet again more lava flow creeping across surface		Me standing near the lava flow creeping across surface

	Pu'u O'o vent from about 1½ miles away		Gnarly tree along trail to Red Hill on Mauna Loa
