From Here To Eternity by Clark Thompson
This photograph is a sunrise shot taken at Halona Cove on O’ahu’s eastern shore. The sun appeared to be rising straight out of Haleakala or “House of the Sun” on Maui. Halona Cove is also known as “From Here to Eternity” Beach. This is the location where Deborah Kerr and Burt Lancaster embraced in the surf in a memorable, steamy scene from the movie of that title. Canon 30D, EF 18-55 lens, polarizer.

The Paliku Rainforest, Maui, Hawaii by RandyJayBraun
Haleakala Volcano crater is dormant now, thank goodness. I live on the side of that mountain, 15 miles from the last eruption. If Haleakala ever erupts again, there really is no place to run and hide, and so I suppose all of us on Maui will start swimming towards Japan. Within the arid crater, there is 100 square miles of lava and cinder. Dry and cruchy, like Grapenut Cereal. However there is one small corner of the crater which captures the cloud moister. In fact this is a tiny rain forest ecosystem. This place is called Paliku, “the Stand Cliff”.

Beach Houses by Clark Thompson
Mankind has definitely left a lasting impression on the Oah’u coastline. This is one of the few places in Hawai’i where the beach front property is still valued under one million dollars. A new resort complex with a luxury yacht harbor are in the works for the coastline just around the point. It will have a profound impact on property taxes and this neighborhood will see significant changes as a result.

Aloha e Malama pono
“Hawaii Ne The crown jewel of an ocean that covers a third of our planet’s surface. Home of the Spirit of Aloha. Known the world over for its beauty, tranquility, and healing, the Hawaiian Islands comprise a total of 137 islands and atolls, with a total land area of 6,423.4 square miles (16,636.5 km).
The eight main Hawaiian islands (also known as the Hawaiian Windward Islands) are listed here from East to West. All except Kahoolawe (also known as Kanaloa) are inhabited. The island of Hawaii (also known as the Big Island), Maui, Kanaloa, also known as Kahoolawe (uninhabited; temporary residential facilities and in the midst of restoration by the Kanaka of the islands), Lanai, Molokai, Oahu, Kauai and Niihau.
Smaller islands, atolls, and reefs (beyond Niihau and all uninhabited), called the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands, or Hawaiian Leeward Islands include: Nihoa (Mokumana), Necker (Mokumanamana), French Frigate Shoals (Mokupapapa), Gardner Pinnacles (Puhahonu), Maro Reef (Nalukakala), Laysan (Kauo), Lisianski Island (Papaapoho), Pearl and Hermes Atoll (Holoikauaua), Midway Atoll (Pihemanu), and Kure Atoll (Kanemilohai).
Some information sources state that there are 137 “islands” in the Hawaiian chain. This number includes all minor islands and islets offshore of the main islands (listed above) and individual islets in each atoll.
Islets and small offshore islands include Ford Island (Mokuumeume), Lehua, Kaula, Kaohikaipu, Manana, Mokolea Rock, Na Mokulua, Molokini, Mokolii, and Moku Manu.
Hawaiians possess a vast knowledge of the environment and know that our very existence depends upon its care. We are the Children of the Land
Ua Mau Ke Ea O Ka Aina I Ka Pono
The Life of the Land is Perpetuated in Righteousness
Okinas and macrons are Christian-taught pronunciation markings and not indigenous to Hawaiian language.
Education was one of the most important functions of the early Hawaiians, and it remains so today. It is the means of survival for a sovereign nation and her people.
Aloha kakou, e komo mai, e pili mau na pomaikai ia oe,
This is Aloha
Preserve the language, preserve the culture, preserve the ‘aina (land), live in balance, live aloha.
E ho’omaika’i O la’a kea me ke aloha pau ole
(Blessings of sacred light and everlasting love.)
