phallic rock


Mom and I sitting on Phallic Rock, Molokai - July 1979 (I was 2 1/2)

In 1979 my dad flew to Molokai several times to work construction on the high school there. He took mom and I on one of those trips. I grew up looking at this picture of us sitting on some rock not knowing WHICH rock it was until I started planning this current trip to Molokai. After visiting it today, it is indeed the same rock, and what a rock it is! Ancient Hawaiians made offerings to it to increase fertility.
