Waialua resident Mark Tomes recently took a 3/12 week vacation on the mainland visiting family in California, Tennessee and Ohio. He spent his time hiking in the Eastern High Sierras specifically at the Virginia Lakes in Mono County, California. Mark stopped to take a picture at the Green Lake Summit (elevation 11,000 ft) and took a break to read the North Shore News which reminded him of the good times back on Oahu’s beautiful North Shore.
