I told Andy W that I would post a photo of U-No-Hoo in my Tonto outfit.
I was also a member of Chief Halftown’s tribe when I was in Pennsylvania before we moved to Florida. I think I still might have my membership card. Chief Halftown had a kids’ TV show out of Philly in the late 40’s. I’ll see if I can find the card..

This is Andy W taken about a hundred years ago:
Mighty cute, Andy. And I’ll bet you just got better looking every year. Does anybody else have a sailor suit picture? I never was in the Navy, but my father was in WWI. He was 16 when he enlisted. My Swedish grandmother, Jenny, lied about his age so he could join.
This is from 2007…

Dave H just opened the door re: my sailor suit photo. He insinuated that it was my high school picture. Not quite Dave. I was even cuter in god ol’ Sea Cow High:

We had one last day in San Diego before flying back to Tampa. While there we visited Old Town San Diego, about ten miles north of the harbor. It was interesting and worth visiting. It was like what they called it, an old California town – shops and businesses and residences like you would have found in the late 1900’s. 



We ate there at Fiesta de Reyes, and the food was pretty tasty. And the good news is, that’s the last of my vacation pictures.

On the way back from Hawaii we stopped in Ensenada, probably because they had to hit a foreign port for some reason. Ensenada is a crummy town. We took the bus downtown, turned right around and came back.
There was one thing worth seeing there:
Magnus wanted to meet Sid’s Mom. This is from 1998.
For a while, way back when, I had P.O. Box 66. That was in Oakton VA.

On the other side of the Island of Hawaii is Hilo.
It wasn’t nearly as nice as Kona. Kind of junky. But they did have a nice farmers market with beautiful fruits and veggies.
Lots of rainbows in Hawaii. Hilo is on the wet side of the island. They get about 200 inches of rain per year. Kona on the other side of the volcano gets much much less.
First stop was Rainbow Falls outside of Hilo. Though the water is brown, they told me that when the sun was shining there is a rainbow in the mist.
From there we went up to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The park is where the current eruptions take place. It is on the lower slope of Mauna Loa, elevation 13,678 feet. The vent, Kilowauea, is around 4000 feet. It was cold wet and windy.
In this next video you can see Mauna Loa in the background.
