I'm glad to have had a lot of good times in Lahaina when we could. I'm sure there will be plenty of good times in store for Lahaina eventually.

Thank you for posting this -- I've not seen this type of current assessment of the property, and I'm not sure how it makes me feel.

We've returned several times since Aug 2023 and this is the most "cleaned up" that we have seen. Wow, painful to see, but hopeful for the future.

Thanks again.

Best,

Greg

It is heartbreaking to remember how tragic the fire was. Although progress is slow, at least most of the cleanup is complete and some new construction has begun.
