MAUI is a beautiful destination for thousands of families who want to experience paradise and the "Aloha Spirit." My family and I (my wife, three kids, my oldest son's wife, and our granddaughter) made the trip to Maui during the first week of August. The first few days were as expected. Beautiful. Relaxing. On Tuesday August 8th, the day started with no power. What would happen from there would be something we as a family have never experienced and would change us forever. Today, I share that story.I took the time on the flight back to try to write down as much as I could about what had happened. While today's talking story is about our experience, at the forefront are those that lost their lives, lost loved ones, lost their businesses, and essentially have had to start over wondering what happened and how did this tragedy happen so quickly.The video version of this episode is ALSO AVAILABLE on YOUTUBE.  Check it out and be sure to SUBSCRIBE (this will allow you to get notified of ALL new ETB episodes as they are released) -- ETB with Genelle SmithENJOY THE TALKING STORY! 🏝We should all find a way to help Maui.

Those who have enjoyed a stay in Hawaii on any of the islands know how much it means to us in terms of making memories. The people of Hawaii deserve our support however we can give it to them.
