Some old Hawaii pics

After seeing video it reminded me of when I went to Hawaii.  Oh say almost 20 years ago on my honeymoon.  Yes we will be celebrating 20 years this September.  So here are some of the pictures we took on top of Haleakala which is a dormant volcano that has a 10,023-foot  summit that you drive up to.  On the way up my wife tells me it looks foggy ahead and I tell her no that we are about to drive through a cloud.  It was beautiful up there.  There are a couple sunset photos also.  Sorry about the quality but, scanned pictures never come as good as the originals. Enjoy!!

Great stuff, but it looks chilly! And why is that lovely lady standing there alone in the freezing cold? I hope you warmed her up later?

The last 2 made me feel warmer again... thanks... needed that!  ;D

Ah, nothing like a little IFR sightseeing- definitely more fun with feet on the ground!
Never been to Hawaii; I hear a lot of great things about those islands.

Little Saturn, don't know the model, but it has a really big sign on top that says "Echelon Driving School" If you miss it, you better go see your eye doctor.

  It was pretty cool walking around and the next thing you know a cloud would come rolling through and you would been walking in a cloud.  The islands were beautiful and we promised each other we would go back :)


The one time I went to the top of Mt. Marcy in NY State I lucked out with a day with scattered clouds at and just below the peak height... very interesting having clouds pass by, engulfing the peak,or looking down on them, with one's feet on solid rock. It ain't Hawaii, but it's pretty cool. Easy hike, too.

One of these days I'm going to get to Mount Washington in New Hampshire.  It is suppose to be amazing at the summit.  Went on it's website this morning and it was a balmy 16 degrees with 81 mph wind gust.
