So glad to see you still posting Steve, to see you and Patricia with such a positive spirit after all you have been through is heartwarming to me, and im glad to see more and more places opening up, dont know when we'll be back because of some unexpected health issues but I look forward to your video's, thank you and God Bless you all
Aloha Phil and Thank You Very Much. So good to see you, buddy. I hate to hear of healthy issues, but please stay diligent and focused and get everything healthy and get to Maui whenever you can. Maui will always be here. Take care of yourself and stay positive and vibrant. I wish you, truly, the very best of 2024, Phil.
My wife and I were just there for two weeks at the first of January. I would encourage people to go. We had a great time and were warmly received everywhere we went.
We donated to the community support center after a trip to costco and also visited the memorial fence. We were respecrful and grateful. Thank you for answering my questions in the comments a few months ago. I took your advice and I am glad I did. You where a big help. We stayed at the Outrigger Kaanapali Beach Resort and I thought I might bump into you but I didn't.
Mahalo for all you do and Aloha Big Steve.
Aloha and Thank You. Darn. I work the Graveyard shift, 11pm to 7am shift every day. I now start at 7pm and go to 7am. Hope you had a great time and thank you for coming to Maui. Best Aloha Wishes for 2024. Here is my latest: ua-cam.com/video/2fU97D0Y-nY/v-deo.html
Thanks Steve. Good to see your positive posts, in spite of all you have been through. Love Whalers village, especially the Hula Grill. Maybe you could visit them? I could vicariously enjoy a Mai Tai. Lol.
Aloha and Thank You. We, too, love Hula Grill. We have such a long list of places to go back and shoot video of our meal and experience, but we're staying in a hotel close to Whaler's Village. So that will work. Stay Tuned. Best Aloha Wishes for 2024.
Thank you for showing all of this. I hope you’re doing well. Coming to visit Maui soon in April for spring break. I’m so glad that Aloha mixed plate is coming back and that Star noodle is as well! 😮😊
Aloha and Thank You Tamara. You'll love Maui in April and all of those places will be open. As you know, Star Noodle is our #1. Aloha Mixed Plate will be back in its original location. Travel Safe and Best Aloha Wishes.
Aloha Steve, great video and glad to see Patricia and yourself out enjoying a great meal. You really brought me back, my wife and I had lunch there on our anniversary during our first trip to Maui almost 4 years to the day(02-11). This year we will be back again with our girls and I’ll definitely have some bbq in tow we can enjoy together, 🤙. Really sad to see the remains of the pioneer inn and wharf. Be well.
Aloha and Thank You. Always good to see you here and your emails. Dang, I need some of your BBQ. I look forward to ya'll coming over and please let me know when. We may be on the Mainland or in Thailand. I'm not sure but hope we're here to meet you and have a few "toasts" to love and life and great food. Stay Sane. A Bit. Man Hugs.
Mahalo for posting a new vlog on what’s going on in Lahaina. I barely hear anything on the news, so happy that you took the time to make this informative vlog. I know it must be so difficult to go back to the area to get your pictures and videos for your vlog. I am happy Steve that you and Patricia are trying to get get through this difficult time. Nice to see that your both out and trying to make the best of things. I could so go for a Monkey Pod Mai Tai. Had one when I visited Maui last May. I Truly enjoy watching your Maui content. Would love to see what the beach erosion looks like in Kehei. They briefly showed it on the news here on the mainland. Take Care and just know the majority of us are hoping things get better soon for all of you who suffered this great loss of your beautiful town.
Aloha Patti and Thank You Very Much! So appreciate you and your wonderful thoughts. I may still do one more inside the Burn Zone, just to show how it looks. We're moving forward now, and after 6 months in the Outrigger we're hopeful for a new place to live on Maui. It may be on the other side of the island. Yes, nothing better than a Mai Tai and I so wish you were here to enjoy with us. We'd toast to love and life for both of our families. We'll keep posting videos and hope you have a wonderful 2024 and can come back to Maui soon. Stay safe and sane a bit and we send very sincere thanks to you, Patti.
Thanks for the update. LOVE Aloha Mixed Plate.
Aloha and Aloha Mixed Plate will open again soon. In the original location on front street. Best Wishes.
Hi Steve, what happens next? When all the debris is cleared - what are the plans to rebuild Lahaina? How do you get rehoused?
Aloha Steve and Many Thanks. That's the next and largest question. Once the debris is removed, then the "challenges" really begin and there is no easy answer nor any commonality among the many different people that lost houses and businesses. Example: Take any 5 lots that had a house. One will be owned by a local, one is owned by a Canadian corporation, one is owned by a NY Investment firm, one is so-owned by 5 partners, and one is owned by a California LLC. Each has their own thoughts, wants and desires. It will be a mess. Truly. At this very moment, over 50% are NOT even agreeing to have their debris removed. Unbelievable. OK. You get the picture. Time will tell. Take care and come to Maui soon.
I don't know, but I have a feeling the cleaning is going to take forever.. this is crazy
Aloha and Thank You Very Much. You are so very right. I just heard that in the Puumanu area, over half of the home owners are refusing to have their lots cleaned. What? I can't quite understand that. Why? What are they thinking? It will take a long time and then the real "fun" and challenges begin, as each home owner has different thoughts and goals and desires. Some lots are owned by Canadian corporations. Some by New York investment firms. Only a few by locals. Some have California partnership LLC ownership. There will be massive disagreements and time delays before anything is even started. Most "projections" are out there 7 to 10 years, before you'll see much in Lahaina Town. Hope you still come to Maui and Best Wishes to you and your family for 2024.
Looks like a war zone. Is it possible to rebuild the buildings with the most historic value?
Aloha and "Yes" they are working hard to restore the "essence" of the historic buildings. It's the contents and historic mementos that can never be replaced. Much was lost.
Where are the missing kids?
Are they at your house? My DIL teacher from KAM III in Lahaina Town has found every single child. Maybe you are hiding them? I have never heard a local mention anything about missing children and it make the Intl News if this was actually happening.
As I was walking my dog yesterday, I thought, "I hope Steve and Patricia are OK", and voilà, you post another video! The images of Lahaina are so sad and your strength and positivity is so good to see. Glad you enjoyed the food, looked yummy!
Aloha and Thank You, Gill. Always good to see you. Yes, sad. Really sad and just disappointed that it's all gone. I loved every bit of Front Street. But we're getting our legs back and starting to take steps forward (I think) and see some improvements. Life is Interesting, eh? Best Aloha Wishes for 2024 to you and your family, Gill.
Still hard to believe we lost our favorite getaway spot on the island. Old pictures are so meaningful to us now. Bless you all. Can't imagine what the future holds for Lahaina friends. We left just before the fire. See you in May. ALOHA
Aloha and Thank You, Jonathan. Glad to hear you're coming back in May. I'll get more videos up as places start to expand and do things a bit differently. It's still a fun and awesome island to visit. Trave Safe. Best Wishes.
Hi Steve and Patricia. Nice to see a video from you. Glad to see you both are doing well considering. Much love.
Aloha Catherine and Thank You. It is always good to see you. Appreciate your support and kindness and hope all is well with you and your family. Best Aloha Blessings!
This was so sad to watch. Please keep the updates coming so the world knows what is really going on there. Praying for all the people 🙏🏼💞
Aloha and Thank You. I'll maybe do one more in the Burn Zone as I'm sorta curious to see how it all looks. Best Wishes for 2024 and Best Aloha Blessings.
Another excellent video!! Absolutely love that 1st song that you’ve played before!!
Aloha Stephen and Thank You. Yes, I really like that song and may use it again. Stay Safe and come to Maui soon. Best Aloha Wishes for 2024.
I want to know the songs in this slideshow please.
Aloha and 'Thank You. I'll get back to you. They are very "localized" as you can tell, and I'll have to see if they are actual written songs, or original creations. I'll ask around and get back to you. Best Aloha Wishes for 2024.
I'm so very happy to see you and Patricia back in a new video!! Yay!! Have been missing you two and your always interesting videos. Even though it hurts my heart to see Lahaina Shores in this video I have a tremendous gratitude for the weeks my husband and I were able to enjoy our stay there in 2022. I cannot adequately write of my sorrow for you and all of the Maui islanders whose lives have been divided, more or less, into Life Before the Fire and Life After The Fire. Keep your positive and encouraging attitude, Steve, please. So many of your readers are in your corner and pulling for you and I am among them. Stay safe!
Aloha JoAnne and it's always so nice to see you here. Patricia comments about your comments and we thank you for your support, kindness and love. We're starting to show some "rebound" a bit, but it will take a long time. Front Street is gone and will never be the same. Housing is still tough, but with each passing week people are making "Life Changing" decisions. The Pandemic was "Life Altering" but this fire has changed the lives of us and many others. Yes, you're right, as we already will hear something and ask: "Was that before the fire or after the fire?" It will be a "point in time" that will be used by many generations. Best To You, JoAnne, and so very thankful to have you here. We love to see your comments and wish you the best always.
Aloha Steve. My husband and I are planning a long overdue trip to Maui in late July through early August of 2024. It's our hope you and Patricia will be on island then and that we might see you. We appreciate so much what your many videos have contributed to our knowledge of Maui and your enthusiasm for your adopted island home is unparalleled. Not to mention how sweet and approachable you both are. We certainly hope both of you and all of your family members and friends are safe and being mindful of your mental health as you've been through SO much, not even of your own making. Know we miss you and hope a new video is ready to view soon.
It's good seeing both of you, Steve and Patricia. I always enjoy your videos and keep up that positive attitude despite all you, and others, have been through. Yay for Happy Hour at Monkeypod!! 🤙
Aloha Chris and Thank You. So appreciate you and your kind words and thoughts. We're moving forward with small "baby steps" I think, even though I also think it's a very small baby. LOL+++ We'll rebound and get back on track once we figure out the housing issues. Yay Yay Yay for Happy Hour at Monkeypod. Wish you were here to have a toast with us there, and offer our Best Wishes for you and your family in 2024. Stay Sane.
Steve, I love your videos so much. Your happiness and positive attitude shines. Looking forward to seeing more videos with you and your lovely Patricia.
Aloha Laurel, and Thank You Very Much. So appreciate you and your kind thoughts. It is people like you that sustain us and give us hope and drive us to move forward. Wishing you the very best in 2024. Stay Sane! A Little Bit. LOL+++ Hugs.
Thanks for sharing
Aloha Dave. Thanks and Best Wishes. Git back here.
You've stated the Council approved tens of millions for a landfill. But a permanent disposal site has not yet been selected. And as far as I know, FEMA is funding the temporary disposal site at Olowalu. So I would like to know what action the Council took that you are referring to. Please be as specific as possible in terms of date, or maybe a Bill number. I'm a Maui resident and lived in Lahaina myself for ten years. If the Council has already appropriated the money, it might mean the public has no more chance for input once a permanent disposal site is decided upon. Thank you.

The entire project is estimated to cost $59-$69 Million. FEMA is, largely, funding the project with $40M, but there will be significant costs to the county of Maui, like off-duty police and a long list of costs. EX. I lost three (3) Security Officers to the private company that won the Maui county bid to supply security services at the checkpoints. I've seen their paychecks of $55.00, as they were also there as members of the National Guard. They left our resort employment to go work for an independent contractor that has no ties to FEMA. There are many "loose ends" that are out there. Many. I did not mean to slight or demean anyone. I lost everything at the apt building behind Fleetwood's.
❤❤
Aloha and Thank You. Best Wishes for 2024.
Thank you
Aloha and Mahalo. So appreciate you and your thoughts. Best wishes for 2024.
Always look forward to your videos Steve. Great photography and content.
Aloha Raymond and Thank You Very Much. Appreciate you and always enjoy seeing you here. Stay Safe and Best Wishes and Blessings for 2024. Stay True & Sane. Hugs.
Hi Steve, been long no see you post . Love your video and really like your information thank you to did this❤
Aloha and Thank You. Yes, we have been "lax" with shooting videos, but we'll pick-up the pace soon. Best Aloha Wishes for 2024.
❤ so sad much love from London uk
Aloha and Thank You for your support from the "other side of the planet". Best Wishes to you in London and hope you come to Maui this year. Stay Safe & Sane.
does Maui still want tourists? Ever since the fire they seem more hostile towards people coming
Aloha. Not at all. I see 100's of reviews talking about the kindness and pleasant attitude of locals and how we appreciate tourists and all that they bring to us. I don't see or hear that at all.
Thank you Steve and Patricia. 🌈
Aloha Noel and Thank You. So appreciate you and your support. Come to Maui when you can and Best Aloha Wishes to you and your family for 2024. Steve & Patricia
Lahaina charter has a blue awning~standing
The blue umbrellas all burned badly but are still there. So is the lighthouse. The steps to the church. I saw a mango tree that did not burn completely. Amazing.
Aloha from a 45 years Maui resident, combat vet, Maui massacre survivor. THESE IS ZERO " CLEAN UP " going on, there moving the highly toxic ash a few miles away to the worst part on this planet to move it, Olowalu. its being dumped ontop of our natural water table, in between to streams/ rivers, on top of a cinder cone ( loose dirt ). Its currently flowing into the ocean right into Mauiss/ Hawaiis Mother reef, and one of the most sacred lands to the Hawaiian nation.Not 1 single building permit has been or will be issued to the homeowners, the police chief has gone AWOL, our govenor was the very first in USA history to declare/ proclomation a natural disaster before the disaster even happened. the land is so toxic they are taking 6 feet of soil away, this is because its evidence, the people doing it are eastern european, the CIA and DHS are still here as well as Blackrocks private / armed police force, the mayor still refuses to say where he was, but all that were supposed to be in charge were off island, FEMA was here days beforehand, they made illegal at one point to even take a photo of lahaina. yes is true that no rich elites houses burned, and yes, the color blue didnt burn either....not all, about 95 % didnt, trees didnt, wood didnt, organic matter didnt....but cars melted in moments, forklifts turned to ash. Fema and the red cross did not respond for 6 days as the drank at the hotel bar,. the turned off the water so we couldnt fight the fire, the didnt sound the alarm system because " we would be confused and run into the fire ", when asked if he regretted not turning on the alarm, possibly saving so many and the town, he said no. we now know whom did this, with what, and why. the evidence is overwhelming. , i cant speak for all but we believe about 2000 dead children , 1000 adults, many related but were killed in seperate areas. 90 % of these being land owners. even if you dont believe what really happened, just the act of shutting off the water, and not sounding the alarm makes this a murder case, the ask dump will ruin Maui in a very short time. we also have a lukemia " outbreak " ? about 20 cases now, common factor, all were working in the ash. The Plans for the Smart Island that is to be built are showing up . and its only getting worse by the moment , many have already lost their property to the banks, suicide is soaring, no jobs, 12, 000 without a house and only promises to build new ones. this is a small portion of whats really happening. i dont know what the man in the video was talking about because nothing to help any human is happening. did you know the police physically forced us / roadblock us back into the oncoming blaze. on purpose. these are all facts and can be verified yourselves. .and its far from over....Black rock is now the largest land owner here, the day before the navy and airforce held joint wargames just off the coast..it as a directed energy weapons wargame , and of course, the Rand Coorporation has the worlds largest directed energy weapons platform right here on maui, on top of Haleakala. when the chinese found this out their ambassador said maui is the # 1 place they will hit first in war was to ever break out. theres abook out now called, Burn Back Better, it explains all of this and much more about what really happened. so if you believe engines blocks can melt but trees dont. well. the govenor made emergency proclomation/ laws before the disaster even happened. as i said, these are all facts and can be verified by yourselves...and if you see our police chief , keeep him, because hes not welcome here. oh when fema finally did come out of the $ 500 a night hotels, they took all of the donations by force and threw it in the dump. the guy in this video is not very well informed. God Bless us all.
The gentleman in the video is a Displaced Resident, who has been in the Burn Zone over 20 times. He lost everything at Crossroads Apts. just behind Fleetwood's. He and his wife fought the fire until being surrounded, and his next door neighbor died. They barely escaped by running through Lahaina Town toward Pu'umana . They are now housed 6 months at Outrigger Ka'anapali Beach Resort where the gentleman is the Security Officer and Manager on Duty (MOD) from 7pm to 7am every single day. He has dealt extensively with homeless and residents for 6 months, working each day with Sr. Manager at FEMA and the American Red Cross. Daily. With over 3,500 still displaced residents, many are working hard to accomodate them. Money has flowed - too much fraud by locals coming from other areas of Maui to take money they don't belong. The above words are not supported nor endorsed, but are the words of the very, very well-informed but fact-based gentleman in the video. Facts Matter. Aloha.
@@MauiTravelVideos nope. your facts are lies. oh that fema the fema that were here 2 days before the massacre , and stayed at our finest hotels and didnt respond til 6 days after then stole our donations and threw it in the dump. yep that fema..locals from other areas...wtf...been here 45 years,,,havent seen or heard of 1 local doing this,,,, 3500 still displaced,,,thats 11, 000,,,facts matter. and nothing is being cleaned, moved and destroying maui is whats happening..but you dont know that either. we hate fema here.
Thanks for the truth
The truth
@@MauiTravelVideos i was inside of it qkk for 48 hours...i got the photos,,very safe...time has proven me % 100 correct. and it still gets worse.
Such a sad thing to look at
Aloha and Thank You Jay. Yes, it is really sad. But after 6 months we're starting to "rebound" a little bit and get our legs back underneath us, and take steps forward. Come to Maui when you can and Best Aloha Wishes.
God speed✨
Aloha and Best Aloha Wishes for 2024.
