Hilo Wins the Pennant! Hilo Wins the Pennant!

Last year it was Ewa Beach winning the Little League World Series. Today Hilo won the Cal Ripken 12-and-under World Championship game, defeating Mexico 5-2.

It's gotta be the vog.

Congratulations to the kids!

Vog?

Smog, but composed of volcanic particles rather than auto emissions. Hilo is only a few miles from Kilauea, currently in its 23rd month of eruption. See here for news and a link to images.

Oops. 23rd year of continuous eruption.
