The Anna Ranch Heritage Center in Kamuela, Hawaii is a unique destination for visitors to the Big Island. The center is located in Waimea, the historic paniolo (Hawaiian cowboy) town, and is part of the Parker Ranch, the largest privately owned cattle ranch in the United States. The ranch was founded in 1847 by John Palmer Parker, who brought cattle to the island of Hawaii.

The Anna Ranch Heritage Center is dedicated to preserving the history of the Parker Ranch and to honoring the life and legacy of the ranch’s first female manager, Anna Leialoha Lindsey Perry-Fiske. The center features a collection of historic artifacts, photographs, and documents related to the ranch and its history. The center also offers interactive exhibits, educational programs, and guided tours.

Visitors to the center can explore the historic buildings, including the main house and the dairy barn, as well as the many artifacts and displays. The center also features a living history program, which brings to life the stories of the people who lived and worked on the ranch. Visitors can also take part in educational programs, such as lectures and workshops, which focus on the history of the ranch and its impact on the local community.

The Anna Ranch Heritage Center is a great place to learn about the history of the Parker Ranch and to appreciate the achievements of Anna Leialoha Lindsey Perry-Fiske. Visitors can explore the buildings, artifacts, and displays and take part in educational programs. The center also offers guests the chance to experience the beauty of the island of Hawaii through guided tours and activities.

Rainbow on Maunakea - Hawaii (EPOD) Today my photo of the rainbow at the top of the Mauna Kea volcano in Hawaii at an altitude of 4200m was selected as the Earth Science Picture of the Day (EPOD).

From the vantage point of Gemini North, one half of the International Gemini Observatory, operated by NSF’s NOIRLab, a small rainbow can be seen sprouting from behind smaller peaks near the summit of Maunakea. One of the five volcanoes constituting the Big Island of Hawai‘i, Maunakea rises to an elevation of 4205 meters (13,786 feet). At that elevation, tropical clouds infrequently cover the summit, but they often roll past at lower altitude, as seen here, bringing some moisture to the dry area. These water droplets suspended in the air would typically be invisible, but their presence is betrayed when light is refracted through them. The droplets become like prisms, slowing and then separating the almost white sunlight into its component colors. The result is a spectacular spectrum of light — a rainbow — that is beautifully complimented by the red soil of the volcano and deep blue of the sky. This photo was taken as part of the recent NOIRLab 2022 Photo Expedition to all the NOIRLab sites.
