If you can’t be in Oahu to watch fireworks this year, then I hope you’ll enjoy this photo of Pele’s natural fireworks as lava flows to the ocean on the Big Island.
Before I head off for the holiday weekend, I thought I’d leave you with an old school joke that came to mind. Did you hear about the girl who ate fireworks for breakfast? Her hair came out in bangs.
Happy Independence Day!


What a great photo and and tie in to the 4th of July! Hope you are having a great time!!
Hi HVG – Thanks!
This photo is one of our favorites from the last trip to the Big Island. I love how you can see bits of the surface flow along with the distant lava flow into the ocean. I’m such a volcano nerd.
