Today I blog about the vog,which came and went all day.
I like the blog but hate the vog.
That's all I have to say.
Ah, but it didn't rain until the day was mostly pau. Yow! That was nice.
We're experiencing what's known as Kona weather, a.k.a. Kona winds. Although, the term "winds" is a bit misleading. It's more like lack of wind. The air is still and muggy. The sulfuric gasses spewing from the current eruption aren't blown away. Instead, they settle over us, like forest-fire smoke.
Today, I spent sweating while cleaning windows, washing the car and just sitting around watching football. OK. I wasn't sweating while watching football. I had already done my sweating by then. Anyway, go Broncos! Go Rockies.
Here is a collection of photos from my recent two week
trip to the mainland. We begin with images from
In-and-Out Burger, including an unflattering self-portrait. This is what happens when you scrunch your face up while shooting yourself with outstretched arms.Next is a cool shot of clouds at 37,000 feet somewhere near the Grand Canyon en-route from California to Colorado. It was a spectacular show outside the window, with wild cloud formations and great shadows cast by the late afternoon sun.
Next is a nice shot of a pretty street in Gunnison, Colorado.
Below that, a pretty high-desert fall scene somewhere about midway between Gunnison and Lake City, Colorado. 
Next, a shot of me with some wine-swilling friends in the Santa Inez Valley, California.All in all, it was a good time.
A hui hou. Aloha!
