#HFS2018

I started this Blog when I first started working with the North Lake College Summer Hawaiian Field Studies course. I knew that in 2 weeks, I would learn so much and I needed a place to document it. I was right. I went back through my pictures when I got home and thought, "Did we stop here? I don't remember this!". So I went back to my Blog and was reminded of that moment. So many great moments, so many great stories...here is where I document them. Please read, enjoy, send me questions, comments, etc.

I will be streaming live using Periscope on my Twitter Page. Follow me @Laronna_D on Twitter and @ldoggett on Instagram

Day 2 - Imiloa Astronomy Center and Halemaumau Crater

Punawai gave us a tour of the Imiloa Astronomy Center. Uncle Don gave us a tour of the outside gardens. 


In the gardens, we eat Mountain Apples...yummy!  I look forward to the Mountain Apples every year!


Checking out the Halemaumau Crater at night.  It was very bright and pretty!  Students were taking pictures of the glow.  I met two very nice ladies there that live in the park...I think. They said that they did not live very far.  One lady was a retired teacher.  The other lady was the wife of a famous photographer that photographed the park a lot.  I believe that Lewis was the last name. They were very nice. The teacher gave me a hug/kiss on the cheek and said...that is the way we do it (say hello)  in Hawaii.  I said that is not the way we do it in Texas. She told me that we need to relax more...agreed!
