Gave a copy of Ten Thousand Hours in Paradise Vol 1 to a friend since he so graciously hosted me at his cool pad in #Kalapana 🌺 (He’s not really this serious in real life.)

#KrunchiBits & I had so much fun! (At many of the places described in the book, too) #PunaAdventures #TenThousandHoursInParadise

Ten Thousand Hours in Paradise - A Gift to Krunchi Bits for hosting me

Made a #SwipeablePanorama — too bad it only works on Instagram… still worth it. Covered by lava in 1990, it’s comforting to know that, someday, #Kalapana town will have a forest again 🌿

Tonight I'm in the City; yet my heart longs to walk along the #Kalapana lava field once more, to sit on on the bare black rock beside crashing waves.

Someday. Someday once again…
