Westside A'a

Yesterday Ethan and I took a stroll out on the lava beds just a stones throw from our house. It had been many years since I had been there but I remembered that there were a ton of small caves, holes, small crevasses and just random fun that I thought a 6 year old with a healthy appetite for exploration would enjoy. I was right: Ethan loved it out there and didn't want to go home. I promised him we'd be back though.

If you go wandering out there be aware that the lava rock is of the a'a type, meaning if skin meets rock, you will mutter "ah, ah, ah oww, ah, #%@!"
