FIRE IN THE SKY

ITS FUNNY, THE ARMY MANAGES TO FIND HELL EVEN IN PARADISE. THIS PIC WAS TAKEN ONE FROSTY MORNING ON MAUNA KEA ON THE BIG ISLAND IN HAWAII. THE SANDS THERE CAUSE LIPS AND FINGERS TO BLEED AFTER STAYING THERE FOR A FEW DAYS BECAUSE OF THE VOLCANIC GLASS IN THE DUST. AT NIGHT THE TEMP DROPS TO THE TEENS AND IN THE DAY LIGHT HOURS IT RISES TO LOW 80S. ELEVATION, ABOUT 9,000 FT.
