You Did What?

For those of you that don’t know, Debbie has some very active dreams.  She talks and fights in her dreams.  Sometimes, she has been known to fall out of bed.  A couple of days before Lindsey visited Debbie had an incident.  When Debbie’s concierge medical staff (Lindsey) arrived, she noticed Debbie’s injury.

Lindsey:  What happened to your finger?

Debbie:  I fell out of bed on my finger.

Lindsey:  I am sorry.  What did you do?

Debbie:  I fell out of bed on my finger.  Well, actually I jumped out of bed.

Lindsey:  Did you mean to do that?

Debbie:  Well, no

Lindsey:  I don’t want to know.  We won’t discuss what you did.  Can you bend it?

Debbie:  Look – Yes, it is fine – swollen but it bends

Lindsey:  Your finger is crooked

Debbie:  I noticed that but thought it would straighten out

Lindsey:  It is broken

Debbie:  What?  No, no, no, no it is not broken.  You can’t just look at a finger and say it is broken.

Lindsey:  I am your medical concierge – it is broken but we can’t confirm without an x-ray.

Debbie:  I will concede that it could possibly be broken and will get an X-ray at home.

Lindsey:  Okay, I hope your finger is not crooked for life.

Over the next two days, Debbie stared at her finger a lot and kept wiggling it.  The finger continued to be crooked. The night of the Lava Walk, Larry suggested a finger splint.  Debbie and Larry bought a $6.00 splint at the drugstore which was applied by the medical concierge.  (Note:  Debbie made the lava hike with a splinted finger.  She is so brave.)  By Sunday, Debbie reached the conclusion that perhaps she should get her finger x-rayed in Hawaii so it would not be crooked for life.  After calling around, it was determined that only an emergency room had an x-ray machine. An Er visit was added to the “to do” list but there are not many hospitals on the Big Island.  Debbie armed herself wit the list of hospitals in case they passed one.

After the Pololu Hike (again Debbie was so brave to try to hike with perhaps a broken finger), the group headed for the Kahola Hospital Emergency room mostly because Debbie put it in the GPS and the GPS would not let it go.   They rolled up to the hospital Emergency Room and knocked on the door at 4:00 in the afternoon.  (Imagine a quaint Hawaiian hospital in a TV sitcom shocked to have an emergency).  They let Debbie in and directed her to one of the two er rooms through the hospital hallways.  (The group decided it might be a nursing home/hospital)  Debbie was the only patient in ER.  The rest of her entourage followed and  lined up for the bathroom. (Remember the Pololu hike and no bathrooms?)   Joyce decided to retreat to the car as other patients were quite vocal and freaking her out.  Jerry and Larry sat in chairs for prime examination viewing sort of like an audience.  The concierge sat on the table with Debbie for support.

The admin and nurse took the history and said the doctor would be called in.   (Joyce saw him stroll across the parking lot after being called in).  About 4:30, Dr. Green appeared in his shorts and Hawaiian shirt.  Both the nurse and doctor were quite impressed with Debbie’s crooked finger.  Debbie just held up the finger and no further discussion was needed about what was wrong.  The x-ray tech (also in Hawaiian shirt with a pony tail)  escorted Debbie to x-ray for 3 x-rays (the entourage did not go xray.)  The doctor and patient reviewed the results.  “Broken”.  (Man, that concierge is good).

On the way back from x-ray, Debbie confessed that Lindsey was a concierge and that the doctor would need to answer some questions for Debbie’s entourage.  She asked that he be sure and include the fact that Debbie should not do any more dishes in his medical instructions.   Dr.  Green offered Debbie some free pain med samples which Debbie thought was a nice idea.  After Dr. Green checked with Lindsey,  the meds were cancelled.   (Debbie was sad).  Debbie also declined the $50.00 splint as Dr. Green said that the $6.00 splint was an excellent idea and worked just fine but she could have the more expensive splint if she wanted.  (Les Cheap Girl).

Dr. Green felt bad that he was unable to provide any services other than a CD of the xrays and the diagnosis that the finger was broken.  The doctor did give Debbie a chocolate cupcake since he couldn’t do anything else and thought she was very brave.   Debbie did not feel bad about eating a cupcake in front of everyone although she got chocolate on her splint.  They left the hospital at 5:15.  (Dr. Green forgot to mention the dish thing – Debbie was sad again).

The group found Joyce napping in the car.  In celebration of a successful ER visit and as payment to the concierge, shaved ice for everyone!

 

 

 

Pololu Valley Lookout

Feb 19, 2017 – Hawi, Hawaii

The morning is the best time to visit this picturesque perch overlooking a stretch of sea cliffs. (The group did not believe this and went in the afternoon).  Pololu Valley is located at the end of Highway 270 in North Kohala.  The highway ends at the picturesque lookout for this valley. (Yep, with no parking)  At the top, you can look down on Pololu Valley and a beautiful black sand beach.  It is a 25 minute (if you slide over the edge) hike (steep and muddy hike) to the bottom of the valley and  check out the wonderful scenery and black sand beach.  Bring a picnic to enjoy at the bottom of the valley. (That you would have to hike down carrying).

Jerry ran a tight ship with no bathroom breaks on our 90 minute drive to the valley.  There were no bathrooms anywhere around the valley or overlook upsetting some of our hikers.  The trail is red dirt that can turn to mud if it gets wet.  As you descend, there are switchbacks all the way to the bottom.  It started misting but everyone started down the trail anyway.  Joyce and Debbie hiked a third of the way down until they figured out that they would need to hike back out and up.  Larry hiked a little farther but felt that he needed to escort Joyce and Debbie.  (So he says…. )  Lindsey powered on down the trail followed by Jerry.  (She didn’t even look back at the other three. )

Joyce, Larry and Debbie huffed and puffed their way back to the top to wait.  Larry amused himself by taking pictures of the bottom from the top.  (See sleeping man picture).  Joyce looked at the view and Debbie ran in and out of the trail.  After about a 45 minute wait, Lindsey popped back out at the top not even having the decency to be breathing heavily.  Jerry was no where in sight.  After another 15 minutes more passed, Jerry (breathing heavily) also appeared at the top.
Some date pastes may also be a combination of two machines Another great advantage of using these machines is to http://djpaulkom.tv/photos-the-massacre-tour-gets-crazy-in-corpus-cristi-and-san-antonio/ order generic levitra note that there are actually two machines in one.

The other product that has gained cheap cialis india a strong market position in various countries. Sildenafil Citrate which the active ingredient in uk generic viagra , Sildenafil Citrate.
Lindsey and Jerry told the trio that they should have hiked to the bottom because there were porta-potties, spinner dolphins and whales.

Jerry confessed later that he was keeping up until Lindsey kicked it into high gear and then it was all over.  He also confessed there were no porta-potties, dolphins or whales at the bottom.  (Debbie does not know where Lindsey learned to make stuff up like that. )

Lava Field Redo

February 17, 2017 – Pahoa

Larry and Debbie were so thrilled with their  first visit to the lava flow that they decided to take Lindsey.  (Yes, you are reading this correctly. Another 8 to 9 mile hike.  Joyce and Jerry smartly declined the second visit.)

Early Friday morning, Larry, Debbie and Lindsey left for Volcano National Park. Being the good child, Lindsey chauffeured here parents across the island on Saddle Road.  (Debbie did notice that people kept questioning her navigational skills but was successful in getting to the park.  At one point, someone might have yelled out “I am the navigator.  You can not question the navigator!”)  They visited the park, picnicked and hiked to the lave tube.  (It had already been named so the Engs could not claim itfor Lindsey).  They then headed for their rental to prepare for the lava hike.

This rental was not in the lava fields.  It was down a little street that had not been paved in the last 20 years.  They bounced down the road to the house.  Debbie was thrilled that the owners gave them a box of dark chocolate macadamia nut candy.  Larry and Lindsey suggested that Debbie not eat it all in one sitting.

They drove to the lava field starting point and bypassed all the bicycle rentals.  They started walking around four in the afternoon.  It was really hot and full sun with little wind this time.  Lindsey had her hands full with her parents.  After about 30 minutes, Debbie was whining about no shade and that she was hot.  Larry kept getting rocks in his shoes.    The trio called themselves elite walkers as there were very few walkers and lots of bikers.  (To be honest, Lindsey did not call them elite walkers but she was mistaken).   Debbie saw a 30 year old with a bike talking about turning around because it was too hard. Debbie also saw this lady on a bike that fell down and skinned her knee.  (She should never have been on a bike with a long skirt).  These two ladies made Debbie perk up and perserve.  After about 90 minutes of walking, they arrived at their destination 4.5 miles down the road.

Lindsey and Debbie sat and watched the lava flow waiting for the sunset while Larry took pictures.  There was a rope that kept the crowd away from the area that had “cracks in the earth that might fall into the sea”.  People would crawl over the rope to get a better camera shot.  (Debbie did wonder how the land was only going to fall  away up to the rope.  Regardless, she carefully stayed on her side of the rope and Lindsey graciously stayed with her.  Debbie also felt that people kept invading her personal space and talking about things that they really didn’t know about.  Lindsey told Debbie to stop making faces at them however, Lindsey did take some unflattering pictures of the worst offenders.)

After sunset, the group began their return.  In the dark, they noticed the the lava had broken through the ground and could see the lava flowing to the sea. Lindsey had a very cool flashing red headlight.  (Debbie and Larry had blindingly bright lights but were quite  jealous of Lindsey’s light.)  They kept trying to touch her light.  Lindsey finally told them that she would walk ahead to prepare the way.  ( Perhaps, Lindsey needed some alone time?)  Larry and Debbie happily walked along trying not to get run down by a bicycle following the red blinking light down the road to the car.

Let’s hear Larry’s interpretation of the trip.  “Debbie and I were fortunate enough to hike again to the lava flow when Lindsey came for a visit.  Again, we went for a night viewing.  Our photos could not capture the spectacular view!  The lava is flowing into the ocean through a lava tube and unlike the movie version, not creeping along destroying villages in its path! If you’re interested in seeing more images, Google…Lava flow in Hawaii and Man swims near lava flow in Hawaii. For the Fitbit fans, we were able to log over 30,000 steps / about 15 miles for each of the two lava hike days!”  (He didn’t stand next to the annoying people).

Once they returned to the rental house, they were serenaded to sleep by the coqui frog.  Zoological moment:  The coqui frog, was accidentally introduced into Hawaii from Puerto Rico in about 1988. Aside from being a major noise nuisance, the frogs pose a threat to Hawaii’s island ecosystem.  They are noisy — with choruses hitting 70 to 80 decibels at night, roughly equivalent to a power mower or a kitchen blender  To simulate the sound, put everyone that you know in one room and have them shout “KO KEE” at the top of their voices for 8 hours.

Special Guest

February 16, 2017 – Kona

Most of the group rested during the day in anticipation of the arrival of our special guest, Lindsey.  The group knew that they would need to rest to try to keep up with her.

Lindsey was greeted at the airport with a traditional lei even though she was an hour late. (Our greeters are very professional.  There are some pictures of people wearing the lei but those are just to see if the lei fits).  Cultural Moment:  In Hawaiian tradition, a lei is a symbol of hospitality, love, respect, and aloha.  Larry, Joyce, and Debbie were the greeting committee.  (Jerry stayed at the condo in anticipation and rested up some more).

They were very convincing and people asked them for advice.

After arriving at the condo and eating dinner, Lindsey went to bed at 8:30.  She couldn’t keep up with Larry, Jerry, Joyce and Debbie.

Crossing the Street

February 14, 2017  Waikola Village

Our Condo is near a street that is busy at rush hour.  It must be difficult to get a stoplight installed so someone came up with a solution that Debbie and Larry really like.  They have not yet been able get Jerry and Joyce to be quite as enthusiastic.

There are flags at each corner of the street.  When you want to cross the street, one takes the bright yellow flag and stops the traffic.  Larry uses the more police like march across the street while Debbie uses the leader of the band twirling technique.  She even convinced someone to take her picture.  (No, it was not Larry).

Kailua-Kona

February 13, 2017 – Kailua-Kona

Today was a trip to Kailua-Kona (aka Kona).   It is the center of commerce and of the tourist industry on West Hawaii. It is designated Kailua-Kona to differentiate it from Kailua located on windward side of Oahu island, and it is sometimes referred to as Kona (thus aka Kona) in everyday speech. (Confused yet?)

First let us say that it is difficult to park in Kona.  After much circling, the car was positioned in front of a law office next to a McDonald’s.  (Debbie was concerned about the car being towed and looked longingly at the car as she left. Joyce will park anywhere).  They visited several sites in Kona listed below:

  • Farmer’s Market  – They didn’t buy anything.  (Who are these people and what have they done with Larry and Debbie?)
  • Moku’aikaua Church –  History Moment:  This is the oldest Christian church in the Hawaiian islands.  The congregation was first founded in 1820 by Asa and Lucy Goodale Thurston, from the first ship of American Christian Missionaries, the brig Thaddeus. They were given permission to teach Christianity by King Kamehameha II, and the Queen Regent Kaʻahumanu.  This is the church where Larry was trapped by a docent.  Next time that you see Larry ask him about this church.  Debbie was almost pulled into the history speech but thought that Larry could tell her anything that she needed know.  Debbie indicated that she was with Larry and was released.
  • Huliheʻe Palace – The former vacation home of Hawaiian royalty, it was converted to a museum run by the Daughters of Hawaii, showcasing furniture and artifacts. (We didn’t get to visit this palace.  There was a party going on the palace grounds and a man stood at the door telling the group that they could not go in.  This made everyone very sad so they sat on the wall in the shade and watched the party guests sit in the sun and sweat.)
  • McDonalds – The group was really hot and needed a bathroom.  Larry made the sacrifice and bought a hamburger for a snack to get the special bathroom code.  He seemed pretty happy about the hamburger.

Luckily, the car was still parked at the lawyer’s office and had not been towed.

Larry was able to share some historical facts on the way home.  He might become a docent.   Docent – a person who acts as a guide, typically on a voluntary basis, in a museum, art gallery, or zoo.  Don’t you think Larry would be a fine docent?

 

 

 

The Long Way Home

February 10, 2017 – Hilo to Waikola Village

After two days in Hilo and wrestling with a shower that arbitrarily  switched temperatures causing the victim to yelp and scramble out of  the shower quickly, the group headed back to the sunny side of the island.  (We know, we know anywhere we are is the sunny side of the island).

First stop – Star of the Sea Painted Church.  Cultural Moment:  The paintings tell the story of Father Damien Devester, a Belgian priest who helped leprosy patients on the island of Molokai and later died from the disease himself.  The church used to be located in Kalapana, but after a lava flow came dangerously close to it in 1990, they church was moved.   Note the “No Dogs Allowed” sign.  They must have found out about the other church where the dogs hung out in the church.

They continued on to Richardson’s Ocean Center in Hilo.  Cultural Moment:  (Debbie is just going to make this up).  People snorkel here and walk into the water to swim.  They have bathrooms and people on tours  so you need to run to the bathrooms before they beat you to the toilets.  (Larry and Debbie so beat those 80 year olds).  We also saw some turtles but not too close because they bite.  (Debbie believes all signs.)  The group picnicked here and watched a state worker  on another picnic table  sleep for an hour.  (Debbie thinks that it was not a good use of the state’s money).     After the state worker awakened, Debbie got some cool tips by watching 3 teenage girls take selfies for about 15 minutes.  (Debbie says that it is a lot of work to pose for selfies).

After the turtles, lunch, sleeping and selfies, the next step was Pineapple Island.  Well, actually not.  Joyce told us that it was Pineapple Island but it is actually Coconut Island. (Debbie just discovered this tonight.  Cultural Moment: Coconut Island, or Moku Ola is a small island in Hilo Bay, just offshore from Lili’uokalani Park and Gardens, in Hilo, off the island of Hawaii. It is a small park, and is connected to the main island via a footbridge.  Legend tells that anyone who was sick or feeling ill would be healed by swimming around Moku Ola three times. In ancient times, Moku Ola was a pu’uhonua (place of refuge), where natives or warriors could ‘redeem’ themselves. It is a cool island and one could see fish or manta rays (Yes, Larry spotted them).

They left Hilo for the drive back.  They passed the Botanical gardens which Debbie hears is very nice.  If you remember, Les Cheap girls don’t like to spend money and couldn’t see paying $15.00 each for a garden tour.  No, instead the group, walked straight down a trail (Note the word straight down implying one walks back up…) to travel along the botanical garden’s fence line to the beach.   The gardens also had an employee sitting in the shade telling people they had to pay to go in.  (Looks like a good retirement job to Debbie)   As Larry and Debbie huffed back up the trail to exit, a lady asked how hard the trail was because her husband didn’t want to get out of the car.  The husband looked younger than the Larry and Debie and he looked grumpy.  Larry and Debbie told him that it was a great hike and he could run up and down with no problem.  As they sped away, they saw him stomping off down the trail in their rear-view mirror.  (He really couldn’t run up and down and will be doing some huffing.)

Next stop?  Water Falls!  Cultural Moment:  Akaka Falls State Park has two beautiful waterfalls, the Kahuna and Akaka Falls, visitors can see, along with beautiful lush plants and trees.  After the visit, everyone went to the town next to the waterfalls with lots of stores.  Debbie seems to have lost all sense of cheapness in this town, she started looking at hand painted sarongs for $200.  Larry had to help her put away the check book.  The lady was working Debbie hard.  She even tried to body block Larry when he said that he had found one cheaper in another store.  (Larry got the stink eye that day).  Debbie was able to walk away with only purchasing a bag of macadamia cookies.

Cultural Moment: A plaque at Laupahoehoe Point Park memorializes the 24 people killed in the April Fool’s Day 1946 tsunami. The giant waves rose to 56 feet above sea level sweeping away a schoolhouse on the point along with 21 school children.  Tsunami alarms were installed along the coast to warn of impending tsunami waves.

The final stop was at Tex’s Drive in for malasadas.  (Debbie has been talking about this for days).  What is a malasada?  Food Moment: A malasada is a Portuguese confection, made of egg-sized balls of yeast dough that are deep-fried in oil and coated with granulated sugar.  (Debbie says don’t get anything else at Tex’s but Malasadas are mighty fine!)

Total drive time is approximately 90 minutes from the west side to the east.  The group made it in 6 hours.

The Wind

February 12, 2017 – Four Seasons

The wind has impacted the snorkeling.  The trade winds blow through the islands and waves roll in hard and fast.  It makes the water murky and difficult to see.  The winds remind Debbie of hurricane winds.  Hair stands straight up, clothes whip around the wearer as one leans forward walking to their destination.

The wind prompted a visit to see the turtles at the Four Seasons.  Debbie believes that she rightly belongs at the Four Seasons.).  To visit the Four Seasons, you have to get a pass into the parking lot.  (Someone in the car has to look like they belong at the Four Seasons.  Debbie tried to climb into the front seat as she was certain that she had the look.  Larry was able to keep her in the back seat and they did get a pass.

On the return to the condo, they stopped at a cave.  Debbie, Jerry and Larry decided to explore while  Joyce declined.  (Smart move on Joyce’s part).  After a few minutes, Debbie decided maybe she didn’t want to scramble over a rock ledge on her hands and knees holding a flashlight in their mouths.  She retreated to find that Joyce has struck up a conversation with other strangers on the side of the road.  They really liked Debbie’s video of the volcano and taught her how to use Air Drop to share the video.  While Joyce and Debbie were learning new IT tricks, Jerry and Larry were still running around exploring the cave.  Eventually, Jerry and Larry decided not to try to find the end of the tunnel and scramble out.  (This group is easy to entertain as long as it is free).  Debbie shared here new IT knowledge the rest of the way home by sending files to Larry.  It is doubtful that Larry and Jerry will leave Joyce and Debbie alone by the side of the road anytime soon.

Tourists

February 8, 2017 – Pahoa, Hawaii

The group got up early, stood on the rental porch, watched people begin the 8 mile hike to the lava flow and patted themselves on the back for completing the hike.  Mostly, they were happy to be able to walk the next day.

The day after the Lava Hike, the next day was spent trying not to walk too far.  First stop, lunch at the Aloha Lehua Café to try some of the local favorites – Korean Chicken – Loco Moco.    Food Moment:   Loco Moco is what you get when gravy is poured atop of a fried egg stacked on a thick hamburger patty, piled on top of white, sticky rice.  (It is not what Debbie gets).

The next stop was Lava Tree State Park.  Tourist Moment:  Lava Tree State Park has preserved lava molds of tree trunks that were formed when a lava flow swept through a forested area in 1790.  There weren’t many people at the park.  There was another older tourist that kept lecturing the people with him.  (Debbie is pretty sure that he was making things up.  She is somewhat of an expert on making things up).  Larry and Debbie actually walked on the grass to get around them.

Sexual arousal or desire to have viagra samples intercourse is hormone-driven bodily function. After the park, they drove to Ahalanui Springs.  Tourist Moment:  Here you can have a swim in a spring-fed, walled-in pool, which is volcanically heated to a comfortable 90°F (32°C). The part natural part man-made pool is located right next to the ocean. It is connected to it by a small inlet, which also allows small tropical fish to enter the pool. The pool water is brackish, but crystal clear, and the bottom of the pool is a combination of sand and mud, with a slight sulfur smell.  Debbie is not enthused about swimming in a pool with a sulfur smell no matter how slight.  In addition, there are warning signs about bacteria and notice not to swim with open wounds.  (Who does this?)  Needless to say, no swimming was done and Debbie would not get within 20 feet of the pool.  They were impressed with the impromptu market that sprung up outside the springs.

Next on the list, MacKenzie State Recreation Park.  Tourist Moment:  Low cliffs, wild volcanic coastline with picnicking in an ironwood grove.  This park is also rumored to be haunted.  There are signs to watch for “Crumbling Cliffs”.  Larry and Jerry seemed to have missed these signs as they kept standing on the edge.  Debbie and Joyce pointed out to them that if they went in that no one was going to jump in after them, there was no cell phone reception and that Jerry had the keys.  Debbie was able to coax Larry back from the edge by pointing out the papaya trees.  He kept circling but couldn’t figure out how to get them down.

Final stop was Kehena black sand beach.   There are two Kehena black sand beaches.  The new beach is new and man-made.  Coconut trees are growing out of coconuts stuck in the sand lined up in pristine rows.  The group hiked to the beach and back.   Then they visited the shops run by hippies.  Unfortunately, they were there on Thursday and not Wednesday when the hippies have a big party. Since the visit, they have discovered that there is another Kehena black sand beach that is clothing optional.  (Debbie and Larry want to assure everyone that they were not at the clothing optional beach nor were they in search of that beach).  They have heard that the beach does offer a yoga class.

Lava Hike

February 8, 2017  – Volcano National Park

We left our hardy group on their way to the rental for the night.  The rental house is on the edge of the path to the lava flow.  As one approaches the path, it is a carnival like atmosphere.  There are tents renting bikes, selling water, walking tours, partial rides and food.

Jerry found out the secret code to drive past the guards and into the subdivision.  The house is in the middle of a lava field.  You can stand on the balcony and see the steam in the distant along with a stream of people heading for the viewing area.

Shockingly, the weather had cleared so the group decided to chance it.  (Seriously, you are going to chance a 9-mile hike in the rain?)  So, the four took off with their water, jackets, and snacks to walk, yes, walk down to the viewing area.  No stinking bikes for them.  No, they are going to walk the 9 to 10-mile round trip hike.  (Debbie having adopted the Hawaiian dress code, put on two shirts, a hat and a jacket.  Larry has destroyed any pictures of Debbie).   Joyce and Debbie were in the lead with Larry and Jerry hiking behind.  Perhaps to pick up Joyce or Debbie when they fell but a more likely  reason was not to hike with Debbie in her outfit.

The road is blocked to most cars.  A hiker walks down a black gravel road for about 4 miles while shuttles haul people part way up the road.   Bikers whiz by on their way.  Luckily, the wind is blowing behind the hikers helping them down the road.  Only 10% of the hoard is walking.   Joyce and Debbie have a lot of deep discussions about would they make it on a bike and how bad would it hurt if a biker fell in black gravel?  (Listen bike vendors, if you put a booth in about a mile down the road you would get a lot more customers.  Debbie does perk up when she sees some of the bikers pushing their bikes back to the beginning.)  They can see the steam vents as they walk and the explosion of steam as lava hits the water.  So, they walk…. and walk… and walk some more to finally reach the end of the road but not the viewing area.  They then start the half mile hike across the lava field to finally reach the viewing area. After an hour and a half of hiking, they arrive.   At this point, the four make a serious error which will be discussed later.

Once you get to the viewing area, people ohh and ahh each time the lave dumps into the sea.  There are thousands of pictures taken.  People also jockey for a prime viewing position.  Debbie and Joyce separate and both find viewing seats on the rocks.  Larry and Jerry stand behind a group of rocks shooting pictures.  As the sunsets, the flow glows red with yellow flames shooting out.  About 30 minutes after the sun set, Debbie see Jerry and Larry pointing to themselves and back to the road.  Debbie sits down to prepare for the return trip to find her flashlight and raincoat.  As she got up to leave, Joyce shouted to her to wait while she found her flashlight.  Joyce and Debbie somehow then got attached to a park ranger escorting an elderly couple who had a puny flashlight over the lava fields.  Somehow, it ended up that Debbie was escorting them across the lava.  The park ranger was very impressed with Debbie’s and Joyce’s flashlights.  After about 20 minutes, they made it to the road where the wind is blowing hard.

Now, here is where we get to the serious error.  The four were not good scouts.  They did not have a meeting place nor a plan.  (Who are these people?).  Larry and Jerry were not at the road.  Debbie took off walking.  Joyce insisted that Larry and Jerry would never leave them.  Debbie said that she was pretty sure the pointing was “We are starting back”.   Joyce insisted so Debbie stopped walking and waited.  After about 5 minutes of cold wind, Debbie went and stood by the park service truck for a wind break.   So, they stood and talked to the ranger.  They created a “Widow’s Club” for those missing their hiking partners.  They recruited at least one other member.  After about 45 minutes of greeting people as they exited the lave fields, Joyce and Debbie went back down to the viewing field.  The ranger escorted Joyce and Debbie back down area as they had bonded with the ranger.  Once there, they yelled out “Larry!”  “Jerry!”  “Larry!” “Jerry!”  until the people in the viewing area yelled back “They are not Here!”  Debbie and Joyce also shined the super bright flashlights on the group endearing themselves to the crowd.  Joyce concedes that perhaps Larry and Jerry are about 45 minutes down the road.

Off Debbie and Joyce go back down the pitch black road with flashlights.  The first 30 minutes was spent discussing “How could this have happened?” with Debbie asking “How much further do you think it is?” or “Do you think that they will fix dinner for us”.  The walk back at night is different.  Not all hikers have flashlights so they walk in the dark.  Larry and Jerry said that they picked up a couple that tagged on their flashlights for an hour.  Debbie and Joyce were surprised sometimes by hikers suddenly appearing out of the dark.  The bicycle people were even worse.  Some had very dim lights as they rode by (no longer whizzed and some even walked their bikes.)  Debbie did start yelling at the shuttle people that they were wimps as they drove past.

After about an hour and half, they spotted house lights.   Spotted house lights and breezed right past their house and ended up in the parking lot.  They backtracked, found the house, Larry and Jerry.

Total walk for the day 12 miles.  Highest one day step number for Debbie ever.  Maybe Pacific Northwest Trail is next?
