Home away from home. I'm Jason Horton.

I'm Rebecca Leib.

And this is Ghost Town.

So Wednesday's episode was about Hawaii and we are staying in Hawaii for the rest of the week.

This episode a little bit more levity, but I just wanted to keep us there.

I want to keep being on vacation there. I just came back from there.

And I want to talk a little bit about that vacation because it ties into perhaps some extra terrestrial activity.

So when I was in Hawaii, I hiked explored. I was on the Big Island and one of the big draws of the hikers and tourists on the Big Island.

Myself included are its volcanoes and volcanic activity, which is still happening by the way.

Yes, there is still a volcano on the Big Island that you can actively watch make the newest land on the planet.

It's crazy.

Lava or Pele, named after the volcano goddess of the Hawaiian tradition, is a big part of the island experience.

Locals will complain of Vogue, short for volcanic smog, and fishermen say the best place to catch Ahi is in the water warmed by hot lava pouring into the ocean.

It still exists, again, among the islanders there. It's still a big part of the experience on the island, not just from an interloper like me, but from the people that live there.

You can catch erupting volcanoes on the southeastern part of the Big Island at the Kilauea volcano.

There's even a park website where you can check Kilauea's eruptions, status online, so you can dodge smog or lava, or go check it out, whatever you like courtesy of the Hawaiian volcano observatory.

It's very, very cool, but arguably even cooler is what the volcano forms after it erupts. Another thing I checked out on my trip.
