This photo taken by Brad Lewis is of Fissure 8 which is creating the present massive flow in lower Puna right now!
Sadly, since the above map, the flow has filled up Green Lake and is on its way to the ocean through Kapoho Beach Lots
and Kapoho Vacationland which is featured in the below photo.

Here's a Tribute to
Wai Opae in Kapoho which we lost this past week. My friends created this important
video
which helped get legislation passed in Hawaii to ban the sale of sunscreens with the harmful chemicals oxybenzone and octinoxate. Although we lost the reef most near and dear to our hearts, this historic legislation will create a ripple and spread around the world, helping to preserve our remaining precious reefs. Please watch the film and if you enjoy it, share it! Many shots were taken in some of the deeper tidepools.

2018 Kamehameha Festival - Hilo on 6/11
Honoring Kamehameha Since 1908
The Kamehameha Festival (Festival) is part of the Kamehameha Day celebration that was first established in 1871 as a national holiday of the Kingdom of Hawai'i. Kamehameha Day honors the memory of Kamehameha who united the Hawaiian Islands in 1810 to became Hawai'i's first King. The Royal Order of Kamehameha I, Māmalahoa has been involved in the presentation of the Kamehameha Day Celebration in Hilo, Hawai'i since 1908. In more modern times Māmalahoa has presented the Kamehameha Day celebration on Mokuola (Island of Life) in Hilo Bay since 1985. In 2008 Māmalahoa revitalized Hilo's Kamehameha Day celebration with an expanded and more culturally significant event called the Kamehameha Festival (Festival).
Today the Festival continues to pay tribute to Kamehameha and acts to protect, preserve, and perpetuate, the Hawaiian culture. The Festival features traditional Hawaiian dance, music, chant, practices, arts, and crafts that are enjoyed by thousands of island residents and visitors from around the world. Proudly presented by the Royal Order of Kamehameha I, Māmalahoa (Hilo Chapter), the Festival takes place every year on Kamehameha Day (June 11) in Hilo, Hawai'i on Mokuola (Island of Life). A day of Aloha for the entire family the Festival is free and open to the public and remains an alcohol and smoke free event.

A small-town nurse named Susette Kelo emerges as the reluctant leader of her working-class neighbors in their struggle to save their homes from political and corporate interests bent on seizing the land and handing it over to Pfizer Corporation. Susette's battle goes all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court and the controversial 5-4 decision in Kelo vs City of New London gave government officials the power to bulldoze a neighborhood for the beneift of a multibillion-dollar corporation.
