I have the same question. Sunrise at the top of Haleakala (on Maui) was right about freezing, even in late May.

My biggest issue with attending the Hawaii bowl is that it's in Honolulu. I'd rather be on any other island than Oahu.

We were on top of Mauna Kea in December.  There was a good bit of snow lying around, but it was clear when we were there, as it usually is at that altitude.

The sunsets there are incredible.  The view of the Heavens with the unaided eye is one of the most spectacular things I've ever seen, but it is really cold, and about an hour previous to that it was 80°F.

The standard cooling rate is 4.5°F per thousand feet.  The summit is nearly 14,000 feet.  You can drive to the 9,000 foot point on a paved road, but after that it's gravel and rather treacherous.  They could have a bowl game right there in the photo between Florida and Miami.

Heh, we used a photo of the two of us on Christmas cards that year, hello from Hawaii.

I want to hike Mauna Kea before I'm too old.

It reminded me of a Texas game where nobody has any defense

Thursday

4 pm, ESPN
Walk-on's Independence Bowl
Louisiana Tech v. Miami, Fla.

Little is better than watching the U lose games, and we get another opportunity today.  It would be an upset - Miami is 26th by SP+ and Tech is 67th, but Miami managed to lose to FIU (99th) and Duke (66th) in their last two games, so we got a hot.  Also, Miami still doesn't know who their QB is.  I say put in Tate Martell.  Let the man play.  All of the great transfer QB's this year and Miami keeps theirs on the bench.  Also it's sponsored by what appears to be the Louisiana version of Champps.  Maybe I'll make a po'boy for dinner tonight.  They are underrated as something you can make at home, but it ain't hard.  Fry some cod or shrimp, mix up a bit of mayo with hot sauce, and add topping as desired (I like slaw).  Hardest part is usually finding good bread for them. 

8 pm, ESPN
Quick Lane Bowl
Pitt v. Eastern Michigan

Come up to Detroit for a bowl game, they said.  The Quick Lane Bowl is exactly what it appears to be, which is a commercial for Quick Lane.  Even their bowl website does away with all the missions and good deeds and gets right to business selling you tires.  Pitt somes in ranked 56th in SP+, compared to a heart 101 for EMU. My secretary at work is a big Pitt fan, so I'll be pull them tonight (or not and I can razz him tomorrow).  Not sure what Detroit cuisine is.  Detroit style pizza?  Jets says their pizza is Detroit style, so maybe I'll have a slice to honor them if I don't feel like frying fish.

What exactly is "Quick Lane"?  I'm guessing gas station.

Apparently some sort of tire place though I'm not familiar with them
