There are eight islands depicted on the quarter. Out of the eight, which is not considered habitable and why? Which one is privately owned? Which one has the most diversified climate? Two islands can have freezing temperatures; which two are they? Hawaii is the longest state, why? What is the connection between King Kong and the Hawaiian Islands? Hawaii is the state with the fastest land growth; why?

That should keep you busy for a bit :LOL_Hair:

ALOHA!
