I9K2 Close to Home Mary Ann Cerullo P.M.H. employees to receive C.P.R. training lone girl wins scholarship Food Festival set Time was getting short. Our spring vacation on the paradise island of Maui was coming to an end much too quickly. But before our fantasy was to end. Larry and I promised each other to experience the heart, the inner soul of Maui. This meant our going to Haleakala, the "House of the Sun." To do this, we woke at four in the morning and began the long dark drive across the island. It was a race against the sun: "Early one day. long before sunrise, Maui, the mischievous demigod known throughout the Pacific Islands, crept to the summit of Haleakala, where he lay waiting for the sun's first spidery legs to appear. As they came over the edge of the crater's rim one by one, he lassoed each ray and secured it to a wiliwili tree. The sun. now unable to move, begged for its freedom. But Maui would not release the sun until it had promised to slow its daily rush across the sky so that Maui's mother could finish her daily chores of drying tapa cloth and preparing food while there was yet daylight. Maui left some of the ropes attached to the sun to remind it of its promise to travel more slowly across the heavens. Every evening, just before the sun sets, the ropes can still be seen trailing off into the night sky as daylight fades." (Old Hawaiian legend). And here Larry and I were following the same path as the demigod in the legend, trying to catch the sun as his first spidery legs appeared over the crater's edge! People of the island had told us that one was very lucky to catch a clear morning on top of the volcano to see and experience the 'most sublime volcanic spectacle in the world," they'd say. I guess we were lucky, for as our little gutless rented car came screaming over the edge of the summit, the sun had just peaked his head over the crater. We joined between 75 and 100 frozen figures wrapped in sweaters and car blankets at the top of the dormant crater of Haleakala. The sign said "Do not run in this altitude" so I jogged just to keep warm. What I didn't realize was that we were all standing at 10.023 feet above sea level. Larry and I stood silently at the edge and gazed down into its heart, feeling as if we had entered a different world a world in which the red moon-like landscape, rolling downward and off into the distant fog-cloaked rim, seemed to beckon hypnotically with its desolate beauty. We drove back down through the mountain's protective ring of mist, leaving the "House of the Sun" in silence. In an effort to extend Pioneer Memorial Hospital's capabilities, a series of cardio pulmonary resuscitation tC.P.IM classes will lw pre sented to hospital personnel, announced Sandra Hanna. director of nursing services.
