a ten day vacation to the island of Hawaii.
Saw the volcano and many other
interesting sights. The volcano, one of the
most interesting sights I have ever seen. It
is called, "The Pit of Everlasting Fire." It is a
large pit several hundred feet deep and at the
bottom are small pits where sulphur and hot
lava is burning all the time.

away from their company were transferred.
