The mountain in the photo, and another, called Mauna Loa, both have snow caps all winter long, even though the temperatures at sea level are in the 70s and low 80s (f). This year, Mt. Haleakala, on Maui, also got a dusting of snow. It's not quite as tall as Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa, so it only gets snow every once in awhile.<BR/><BR/>@ Jim -- Yes, although there are no established ski runs there -- and no lifts or tows either -- some people do go skiing, snowboarding and sledding on Mauna Kea in winter.<BR/><BR/>@ Shannon - I have since looked up that critter, too, and I would love to know how it got to your garden.<BR/><BR/>@ Kyla - I visited your blog earlier today and left a comment about your new snorkeling gear. Hope you have a wonderful time in Barbados.<BR/><BR/>@ Cynematic - Sounds like you really "did" the Big Island while you were hee. I hope you get to come back again -- as a human!<BR/><BR/>@ Kathy - Yes, that is how I like to experience snow -- as a nice view in the distance. ;-}<BR/><BR/>BobbieBNShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10709074385552082635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9067507179347221008.post-39375455167497957172008-02-06T15:47:00.000-10:002008-02-06T15:47:00.000-10:00that is such an amazing place and those colors are...that is such an amazing place and those colors are very much needed for us winter friends!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9067507179347221008.post-91584644400229634432008-02-06T15:23:00.000-10:002008-02-06T15:23:00.000-10:00Beautiful view!
