home,
Thursday, from a delightful
tour of the 50th state. In com
pany with tneir daughter and
family, Mr. and Mrs. Hugh
Pierce, Kimberlee and Kent of
Boise, they met with a group
from the Harmon Travel Ser
vice and enjoyed flight on a
747 Jet Airliner to Hawaii, on
February 3. Not long after the
"take-off*’,
they discovered
more Parma people were ma
king the same venture: Mr. and
Mrs. Joe Perecz, Jr., and Mr.
and Mrs. Raymond Poulton. The
next five hours out of San Fran
cisco were especially pleasant
while friends visited, and all
made new acquaintances as the
plane cruised 37,000 ft. altitude
in bright sunshine above clouds
that had been spilling rain on
the mainland.
The "Orchid Isle” of Hawaii,
also known as the "Volcano
Island" was so colorful with
Poinsettias, exotic Anthurium,
Red Ginger, and Bird of Para
dise blooming all around. Large
hybrid Orchids
were found
mostly in nurseries at this time
of year. Here, also, were many
fields of sugar cane being har
vested, large coffee plantations,
and acres of Macadamia nut
trees.
The drive from Hilo
to Kona passed through the
Parker Ranch area which is the
second largest ranch under the
American flag (largest is in
Texas). Fine white-face cattle
and herds of Holsteins were no
ticeable from the highway. The
City of Refuge near Kona was
interesting but one of the big
gest
thrills of the trip took
place when some of the men of
the tour group went deep-sea
fishing and Mr. Perecz caught
a 9 ft. 3 in. Marlin weighing
about 160 pounds!
On the Island of Maui were
beautiful jungled valleys, the
Haleakala Crater (world's lar
gest dormant volcano) and the
pioneer whaling town of Lahaina
where many enjoyed a glass
bottom boat ride and watched
a scuba diver pick up lovely
coral pieces from the ocean
floor.
The Garden Isle of Haual
had lots of tall sugar cane,
pineapple fields, coconut trees,
and a large dairy farm of Ho
lsteins advertised "Meadow
Gold Dairies”. A boat cruise
down the Wailu River to a lovely
fern grotto with strains of live
Hawaiian music was extremely
delightful.
The last five days were spent
