These two stores have been neighbors for a while in downtown Hawi. Star Light features ‘Crystals & Treasures’ and ‘Spiritual Guidance Readings & Sessions.’
Hawaii Cigar & Ukelele is a new combination at this spot, but the cigar part of it has been there since I’ve lived here and probably for much longer. In the last few months the store has been promoting its CBD (Cannabidiol) products and it might be this that has fractured the fraught relationship between these neighbors.
Hopefully, the pending relocation will leave all parties happy and the spirit of aloha will return to the downtown area.

Wow, how terrible for Starlight (although it’s likely some of Starlight’s customers wouldn’t mind a little CBD in their lives).

I have no particular bias about CBD, except that my spam folder has lately been inundated with CBD-related junk so I guess I’m on Star Lights’s side on this one.

I know. A little instantly recognizable scene that triggered all kinds of memories of incidents and situations of a similar kind.
