Makawao, Maui’s cowboy town with its restaurants, boutiques, and shops is normally bustling with activity from sunup until sundown. During the shelter-in-place time, Makawao has become a sleepy and quiet hamlet with a few neighbors walking their dogs and essential workers stopping for coffee on their way to work.
