The Lahaina Fires - Excerpt from Don's Experience

On the night of the fires in Maui and Lahaina, around 10:15 p.m., my wife and I were woken by a loud banging on our door.  It turns out it was our friends, Mark and Robyn, and they told us there was a huge fire in Lahaina, the entire city burned down, and they thought their house had burned down along with it.  They threw some stuff in their cars (including their kitty) and drove north to get away from the fire.

Of course, we took them in and were extremely grateful they were safe, but at the same time we were devastated to hear about the fire and the entire town burning down.  It takes a while for something like that to sink in.  “What do you mean, the entire town?  You probably just mean a couple of buildings, or maybe a couple of blocks?”  They made it clear that no, it was the whole town.  I can’t even imagine how they must’ve felt thinking that they had lost everything, but at least they were safe.
