Haleiwa church next to empty field with patches of red dirt |
Red dirt--iron oxide from eroded lava rock--is found all over Oahu. Dry, it gets in the pores. Damp, it cakes between the toes. Either way, it requires lots of scrubbing to remove from feet, furniture, and floors.
"...and the Red Dirt held illimitable dominion over all" (with apologies to Edgar Allan Poe)
