I am happy that the 3 Kamaole Beaches have lifeguards to help with information about the ocean conditions.

What’s different about our condo? The walls are decorated with our paintings done on Maui. Guests enjoy that our place has a personal touch and doesn’t look like everyone else’s. Of course, they like being able to book direct, too. Web page in profile.

This house is one I admired for years on Front Street. I always thought I would paint it someday. All the potted plants seemed to tell a story about someone who loved to putter in the garden. I am not sure the house is gone now, but I suspect it is.

Interior view…looking back. The ocean view in the other direction gets the most photos, but sometimes it’s good to look back. Here we see the dining table, the pretty lamp, and the kitchen of our vacation rental. Oh yes, and of course there are paintings.

What do like to look back on from your memories on Maui? We were on the Wailea path when we came across this scene being set up for a technology convention. In the spirit of aloha the event organizer suggested she would take our photo.

Happy Thanksgiving! I am always thankful for this view from the lanai. I am so grateful for those who follow my postings and for those who stay at our vacation condo. It has been fun to celebrate your good times as I hear from you while you are our guests on Maui. Thank you!

Remembering Lahaina— I painted this years ago. I came across this today and wanted to share with you. It was always exciting to be at the harbor. The banyan tree and the courthouse are in the background. I understand that the courthouse can be restored, and hopefully, the banyan tree will flourish someday.

Hope Chapel in Kihei has a free fire relief store. Four days a week, 90 to 240 people a day are getting food items, clothing, personal and household supplies that have been donated. Donations are still arriving, and they post current needs on their website. Besides having to escape with very little, 7000 people on island have lost work. Jobs were lost because of the fire and the early shut down of tourism. Doug and I were able to volunteer at the center to help the people shop. Needless to say, the people were grateful to have some of their needs met. There is a section of toys, and the little kids had big smiles when they were told they could choose a toy.

I made new friends at the airport in Kahului, Maui on Halloween. The letters for the airport are OGG. That stands for, Oh, goody, goody, I’m going to Maui”.

Are you surprised to see this fellow looking back at you? Maui is open and full of wonderful surprises.

Is it time for you to play in the sand? You can walk to several sandy beaches from escape2maui’s vacation condo.

Yes, you are welcome on Maui. The sign was outside a store in Makawao. Businesses all over the island have suffered because of the drop in tourism following the Lahaina fire. Maui is open except for Lahaina Town. The old cowboy town, Makawao, has art galleries, shops, and restaurants. Slide to see photo with name of this jewelry and gift shop.

Take a deep breath, relax, and daydream about Maui. You are welcome. 😎

Do you know this spot in North Kihei? I was driving South to the condo when I saw this amazing sunset. Here are some clues as to the location —I parked in Ululani’s Shave Ice parking lot. There are canoes on the beach.
