As an owner of Big Island property, I'm familiar with the Island of Hawaii
and other islands in the chain. These photos were used in travel stories
I wrote for the Anchorage Daily News.

Private beach near at Hapuna has shoreline caves. Wind at South

into the ocean on the east side of the the island glows like neon.
A mural near the slow-paced town of Captain Cook advertises trail
rides with Big Island paniolos (Hawaiian cowboys).
