A lava flow in April 2003 on this part of the Big Island of Hawaii ensured that no one can park here!

Wonderful find, excellent capture, Patricia! Very cute shot! Love it! #872657Patricia Marroquin October 27, 2004
Thank you, Clifton, Sanjay, Mary, Colette, Debra, Char, Allan, Joy, Murry, Donna and Dan. :-)Sanjay, I wish we could have tried to park there. They blocked off the road to cars for what they said was half a mile from this area because of the ongoing lava flow. But on a hot day, walking that half a mile seemed like an eternity!
I photographed my husband with the sign and he photographed windblown me there too. :-) #872882

Congratulations, Patricia and good luck in the next stage! And to think that the island is still growing! I think they'll have to change it's name to Really Big Island if it keeps up (LOL!)Patricia Marroquin November 16, 2004
Thanks for the kind words, Claudia, Terry, Ellen, Wendy, Sanjay, Bill, Allan, Darren, K, Murry, Donna, Carol, Dan and Stan! Stan, I just love your new name for the Big Island; I think you're right about it getting so much bigger and bigger that it will require a new name. LOL! #915126Kathleen Clemons November 16, 2004

Great documentary!!!Patricia Marroquin November 17, 2004
Thanks, Kath, Karen, Clifton, Susan, Kenton, Colette, Phillip and Nobi! I went through a lot to get this shot! I had to walk over some very rugged, sharp mounds of this stuff to get to the sign. The park ranger had told us before we started the trek that it would make a great photo opp. And thank goodness we were patient enough to get over to it! I knew on this day that the monthly theme was Change, so I was determined to get to that sign and photograph it.
