do you live in Hawaii ?
the reason i ask, is that there was at least 1 fire on Oahu iirc, and 3 or 4 other fires than Lahaina on Maui.
and im not sure which one you mean.
i dont know about the other fires. Lahaina is the only one i really followed.
It is s the Hereditary seat of Hawaiian Royalty.
The Hawaiian Capital more or less.
famous rulers are buried in Lahaina. Its a sacred place to them. And alot of them are losing their land through no fault of their own.
Just like l.a., ect.
i have followed Eric from day 1 of the Lahaina fire

I live in the foothills of CA, east of Sacramento.
Watched a drone flyover on youtube by Jesse G Wald. He was giving an update.
We sit on our deck and watch the plumes of smoke going up in the distance every year. Closest we have come to fire here is having helicopters and planes circling over our house as they make their water drops. If a fire does come our way, we are staying to fight. We have done everything we can it protect the house, but it still needs our help if the big event comes.
