| Haleakala sunset from the summit at 10,000 ft. |
 |
| A few minutes before the colors swept the sky. Very, very, very cold! (Photos were taken by M who would visit Haleakala at least once a month to see the sunrise, or sunset.) |
 |
| On the way down from the summit on one of the by roads in Kula on the slopes of Haleakala, you can meet the chicken who wanted to cross to the other side of the road. |
 |
| Maui (the second largest island in the chain) still has large areas of open fields, which makes driving at night a bit scary. |
 |
| Sunday morning, there was snow on the summit and the roads were icy at the top and impassable. We were on the road in Kula, all set to visit La Provence, a wonderful bakery and bistro, to pick up some pastry M had ordered, but all stores were closed because of the power outtage brought on by a storm that had passed through at around 6 a.m. |
 |
Later Sunday, the sun began to set and cast a translucent glow of red, orange and gold on the mountain.

 |
| The ocean's horizon by Haleakala put on a beautiful show for an instant. |
