Before
After
From the stories I've read, they haven't given up on the tree. They're hoping it will make a comeback.
There are billions of people and a version of normal to go along with each one of them. No two versions are exactly the same. There will be hundreds of thousands of little things that make up your version of normal. With any luck you can find people that have close to the same idea of what normal is that you do. These are your friends. Anyone else you try to tolerate as best you can. .... The exact definition of normal depends on who's running the asylum.

Oh no! I do hope it recovers. Do they know what is wrong with it?
I hope so too.
River -It's been scorched but they think the roots have survived.
Sue - Me too.
Even Hawaii's not spared from global warming.
Great blog
As long as the roots are okay, the tree may survive. We can only hope.
Extra note: when we visited Maui in 2017, we visited that tree. I have pictures. It brings the loss home.
I'm pulling for the Banyan Tree! I know it, and Lahaina, well. I am devastated by the news of the Maui fires.
I'm 'rooting' for it to survive :-)
In Scotland Streams are known as Burns
Kirk - Paradise pummeled.
Bill - Claudia and I have been there, a while back, twice.
Deb - It was unbelievable how fast the fire went through the town.
Kathy - HA! Same here. Root root root for the home team.
Stu - That sounded familiar but nothing I could put my finger on. Google says -"related to an Old Welsh word for 'heat' and means 'boiling, surging river'"
I didn't realise it was in the fire zone.
I hope it pulls through! If the roots are okay, it has a chance.
