A "must stop" if you are driving to Hana!

The quiet little town of Keanae, is on the way to Hana. This lava peninsula was turned

into a rich farming area where taro has been grown for generations. Only a few people

live there now. There is a stone church there, built in 1856, that survived a killer tsunami

in 1946. It wiped out the rest of the village and killed at least 24 people. The development

of our tsunami warning system came because of the tragedy.

This is a 5 x 7 acrylic painting of one of the roads down there lined with bananas plants.

"Kaho'olawe Storm"

I love the colors in this painting and the contrast of the water against the dark lava rocks.

Kaho'olawe is the smallest of the 8 main islands in Hawaii,

The uninhabited island is about 7 miles off the south side of Maui.
