.~ . Where Winter HidesinHawaii The Local Hunt for Gooseburrips.' by N. D. Sinclair About this time of year, visitors to the Islands are escaping cold winter weath­ er. But permanent residents begin what can be called "The Great Goosebump Hunt" or, Island-style, "Where To Find da Chicken Skin ." Islanders also like a change of temperature, so they occa- ' sionally leave their sub-tropical climate and head for places that will raise a shiver. They don't have to leave Hawai( to do so. Each island has a place that's 1 ' really cool. , I Of. course , cold is relative . Main­ landers scoff when they hear kama'ainas exclaiming about the cold if the tem­ perature drops below 70 degrees, then chortle and start to brag about the really cold weather they left at home, as' if it were not one of the reasons they came to Hawaii in the first place. But when a visitor may stand comfortably in his shirtsleeves, an Islander's teeth may begin to chatter. A drop in the .temperature brings strange attire from local closets. Bright aloha shirts are topped inconguously with . sw e a t e rs and mulumu'u-clad : wahines muffle themselves in knitted granny shawls . Upper -crust Honolulu ladies sling tippets of fur (very tempo­ rarily liberated from moving companie s' ' cold storage vaults) around their should­ ers and it is even suspected that electric blankets are used, on some Island-beds . But none of tins deters Islanders from deliberately seeking some ' occasional bracing air, and sometimes they don't have to travel far to find it.
