So nice for you to have these sweet memories. We were just in Lassen NP and the fire devastation is still a major scene in the park. It will take hundreds of years to bring it back to where it was. The same in Lahaina. We feel sorrow for the loss of lives and culture.

In reply to photobyjohnbo.True that, but the one I was thinking of was very successful.

In reply to Marsha.I was just wondering. For all I know, the place could have been closed a while ago.

In reply to photobyjohnbo.Maybe Vince will remember the name. Bubba's was at the end of the street on the ocean side. At least I think that's the name of it. But there were lots of places to get great seafood in Lahaina.

In reply to DeWetsWild.It is a tragic story that has changed many lives. The rebuild will be years in the making, I'm sure.

In reply to Marsha.I don't recall a Bubba Gump's there, but we may have just missed it. You are probably correct that it's the other grille you mentioned.

In reply to Toonsarah.I expect some will move on to other places to start the next part of their lives.

I feel your anguish at such a beautiful part of the world being destroyed, John. I don’t think I can even fathom the loss felt by those who called it home.
