First Snow

The island has been experiencing quite a bit of rain and thunderstorms lately. So it's no surprise that some of the moisture blew up to the summit of Mauna Kea. 

Just a dusting, but it's our first snow cover of the season. Does thus mean that winter is here? Let's hope so. We'd surely enjoy some cooler nights. 

Yes, I know that it sounds strange to most people, but it does indeed snow here in Hawaii. It's pretty neat to be able to say that you played in the snow in the morning, had lunch at the beach, and went snorkeling in the afternoon.....all on the same day.
