Tsunami Warning Big Island February 27 2010
I just added another link right under this description to NOAA’s page where you will find information about the dynamics of a tsunami…Please continue to keep everyone in Chile and Hawaii (and anywhere else in the world experiencing tragedy) in prayer. I am certain we are going to continue to see an increase in these events. If you already know the LORD please try to share your faith at every opportunity and if you don’t know Him yet, please call out to Him while He can be called on, we all have an appointed day to depart. We don’t know when that will be, call on HIM (Isaiah 55:6, Deuteronomy 4:29, Hebrews 9:27).
This video is of our attempt to see any changes in our coast line from 5000ft up on side of volcano on February 27th, 2010…
The VOG was actually too thick between us and the coast line for us to see anything.
So I have attached a couple of links to learn about VOG here also:

Birth of a Humpack Whale, Kohala HI: a Donnie MacGowan Film
Aloha…I’m Donnie MacGowan…I live on the island of Hawaii, in the County of Hawaii in the state of Hawaii…I love living in Hawaii, full of wonderful, amazing and fabulous things. For instance today, I saw a Humpback whale being born.
Winter and early spring in Hawaii are especially magical times—well, more magical even than usual in Hawaii. Starting about mid-November and lasting through April, Humpback whales visit our islands. From as far as way as Alaska and as near as California, the Humpies, as we call them, arrive to breed and, cows that bred last year, give birth this year.
An adult humpback weighs approximately one ton per foot, up to 90,000 pounds and can grow over 50 feet in length. Females are slightly larger than the males. Calves range from 10-16 feet in length at birth and weigh an average of 3000 pounds. Marine biologists believe that humpbacks live between 40-60 years.
And every year they come to visit me in my home.
On the West Hawaii coastline there is a place, and no, I’m not going to tell you where, where humpies are known to go to give birth—it’s a deep, protected cove quite near the highway. My hiking buddy and I were returning from a trip into the Kohala Mountains when we noticed several cars pulled off the road at a spot overlooking this cove. And there they were…mother and baby, still attached by umbilical cord. The video, shot hastily and without a tripod is not great, but you can see the baby playing on it’s back, nuzzling it’s mothers teats and just generally reveling at being free and in the marvelous ocean.
I love being in the ocean…it is my place of peace, calm and meditation. But just try to imagine the joy that this baby whale felt, being born into that vast, magical and beautiful realm. Aloha baby humpy…travel safely and come back to us next year.

Lava Breakout at Night! (Big Island, Hawaii)
In September 2002, we took our third trip to the Big Island. We came here simply because we had seen on the news that Pu’u ‘O’o was sending surface flows close to the end of Chain of Craters Road in Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park.
We were here a year earlier and had to hike about 2.5 miles over the lava fields to reach the surface flows. We felt that if we could see them without a repeat of such great effort, it would be well worth the expense.
We were correct!
We ventured down to the end of Chain of Craters Road on two consecutive mornings before dawn and found the lava crossing right at the end of the road. Even if you were wheelchair bound, you could have accessed these flows!
As we looked uphill towards Pu’u ‘O’o we saw nothing but black with glowing tiny streams of orange coming towards us. With clouds blocking most light from moon and stars, the majority of light came from the glowing lava. It was rather eerie to see the orange streams glowing in the middle of all that darkness.
We walked out onto the flows to get a closer look.
I found an interesting spot where the lava was flowing slowly on both sides. I set up my tripod and video camera and started recording.
This video segment is simply a breakout that happened no more than 30 feet from my position. I was just glad to be able to see it from such close proximity.
