Grilled Mahimahi on Caesar Salad - how about that? - 04/27/08 05:14 AM
DINING OUT ON MAUI - WHAT'S GOOD IN PAIA?
I like to take pictures of food.... how does this look? It was the grilled mahimahi on a huge Caesar salad, at the Paia Fish Market Restaurant. It's only $13.99 ... how can you beat that?
I already wrote about this restaurant not long ago.... check it out for more info. Paia is a small town on the north shore of Maui. We get a lot of tourists here, and we have a lot to offer them. If this doesn't make you hungry then I don't know what to say. Cheers.

KUAU MAUI HAWAII
On the north shore of Maui - just a short way from Paia Town, you'll come to the neighborhood of Kuau. This small community boasts beautiful beaches, ocean access for windsurfers, the Kuau Mart, and Mama's Fish House Restaurant.
NEW LISTING FOR SALE - Kuau Plaza #105 asking $465,000 FS
It's a 2BD/2BA ground floor unit, with a parking spot right outside the door. What makes this special is that the 2 bedroom units hardly ever come on the market - they are just too precious to sell... until now!

Social Networking the Old Fashioned Way - Get out and walk around your town! - 04/18/08 11:03 AM
Social Networking at Street Level - Paia Maui HI
Sometimes it's good to get out and walk about your town. Yesterday I was in our Paia Maui office and decided to walk up to the Post Office to check the mail, even though it was hot and sunny and I could have cruised up in air conditioned comfort (but how lazy is that?).
I'm glad I did. I ran into a friend who is a property manager and learned of a cute home coming up for rent in the North Shore Village subdivision - at a good price too. I'll keep that in mind for any … (64 comments)

Got a good deal on some batteries... for power on Maui. - 04/16/08 03:53 AM
Got a good deal on some batteries... $20 bucks each.
Somebody knew somebody - they were dismantling a back up power system for a high tech facility on Haleakala, Maui, and hundreds of these perfectly good batteries were being unloaded for cheap. My husband got 20. He got a solar panel from another friend, and a old inverter we had kicking around, and made himself a free-standing power system - this one for the barn in Haiku. No more starting up the generator to run the grinder or compressor! And lights at night too.
Many places on Maui rely of off grid technology for their power … (9 comments)

Alaska Airlines wil fly to Maui beginning in October - first time ever! - 04/11/08 08:40 PM
Alaska Airlines will begin direct service from Anchorage to Kahului Maui twice a week, beginning in October. They will also begin a year-round direct Maui to Seattle service on July 17 2008. This is the result of ATA and Aloha Airlines pulling out of Maui. This is exciting news for our neighbors to the north! I hope this means we'll see plenty of Alaskans on our beaches this winter.
Flying to Maui directly, as opposed to changing planes in Honolulu is a real benefit for travelers... it shaves a couple of hours off your travel time, making for a much more pleasant … (8 comments)

MAUI home prices are up, MAUI home prices are down - who can you believe? - 04/11/08 05:38 PM
The Maui News online published a story yesterday (April 10, 2008) that states Maui real estate sales numbers and prices were holding steady for the first quarter. Condo sales appear to be having the most success. Read the whole story here. The interesting thing about statistics on Maui is that we are a small island, with a small set of statistics (currently there are about 1,200 residential properties in our Maui County MLS system). All it takes is one sale at either end of the price spectrum to throw off the numbers. If there are only 3 sales in a geographical … (2 comments)
