DAYS OF MY YOUTH ON KAUAI - MYRON KASHIMA
LAZY DAYS OF
SUMMER!
Like kids everywhere, we could hardly wait for summer vacation! I remember back in intermediate school about four of us boys would go spear fishing for o'opu (gobies) in the flumes that irrigated the sugar plantation fields. We would start out early in the morning and hike up to Kilohana Crater passing through private gardens - helping ourselves to fresh corn, sweet potatoes, tomatoes and all sort of fresh vegetables and fruits.
It was about a three hour hike to the crater. On the way up, there was a spot where the fresh mountain water was fed into a manmade flume system that was about 30' up from ground level on trestles. We would get into the flumes and walk or wade across (my cousin and friends waded across - I swam, I'm afraid of heights!) We would cross over to the other side and set up our fishing spot. We'd spend hours catching o'opu using spear guns we made from bamboo, surgical tubing and clothes hangar wire. Here's the funny part, after we caught the fish, we never ate them..we would throw them away before we left so we wouldn't have to carry them home another three hours.
When we got hungry, we would break open our cans of Vienna Sausages and musubi or rice balls that we had packed and eat the fruits and vegetables that we "acquired" along the hike up. Sometimes we would catch small doves and roast the birds and vegetables over an open fire. I can still remember the smokey smell of the fire and how good everything tasted!
In hindsight, we could have died crossing over the gulch back then! We didn't think about how dangerous it was - it was just another adventure for us boys!
Aloha, Myron
NOTE: There were flumes or irrigation ditches on all the sugar cane fields on all the islands. Generations of plantation kids grew up swimming and fishing in the flumes. Today, the plantations have closed and the tourists have been introduced to "tubing" down flumes where we used to play for free!

Diamond Head Kaimana Hila
The most famous volcanic crater in the world is Diamond Head, located on the South-east Coast of O'ahu at the end of Waikiki overlooking the Pacific Ocean. It was originally named Laeahi by the ancient Hawaiians. The name meant "brow of the tuna" and looking at the silhouette of the crater from Waikiki, you can see the resemblance. The current name was given to the crater by British sailors in the 1800's. When they first saw the crater at a great distance, the calcite crystals in the lava rock appeared to glimmer in the sunlight. The sailors mistakenly thought there must be diamonds in the soil. Diamond Head is a crater that has been extinct for 150,000 years. The crater is 3,520 feet in diameter with a 760-foot summit. When the United States annexed Hawaii in 1898, harbor defense became a main responsibility. One of the major defense forts, Fort Ruger, occupied the Diamond Head Crater. A battery of canons was located within the crater providing complete concealment and protection from invading enemies. An observation deck was constructed at the summit in 1910 to provide target sighting and a four level underground complex was built within the walls of the crater as a command post. A 580-foot tunnel was dug through the crater wall to provide easier access to the Fort. |
