A couple were visiting Maui, Hawaii when they started to continuously see a small humanoid at various locations. They later talked to a local elder who told them that they were lucky, they saw the Menehune.
The following account was forwarded to me:
"I should share my story about the Menehune. It was 1998 in Maui, Hawaii and I was headed to the hotel in a shuttle service and saw this little dude sitting on a fence wire. I had to check and recheck what I was seeing, but sure as summer this little dude was just sitting with his legs dangling. As we got closer he morphed into a plastic bag stuck on the barb. I saw him a couple of more times around the island and my wife actually thought I wasn't crazy.
One day in a gift shop I saw a keychain with a little figurine that was the dude. All excited I picked it up and yelled to my wife across the store, "It's him, it's him!" The elder native that was working asked me, "Have you seen him?" I responded, "Yes sir, several times since I got here last week." He said they were blessing my journey and reason for coming to the island and, that I was a very special and a lucky person. After talking for a little while he decided to share with me a local custom. He said kind of vaguely, "Drive up the coast. You'll know when you get there."
The next morning my wife and I got up and took off on a drive up the coast to a destination we didn't know. As we drove and drove I wondered where I was driving too. Did I pass it? When we came around a corner and on the ocean side of the road there is a meadow and a grotto. The energy present was very nice and I slammed on the brakes and shouted, "This is it!" We parked and walked into the field, the earth felt hallowed. It felt like you should not get off the path. As we walked in we began seeing, in various sizes, stones that have been stacked in a little monolithic style. You know, like at the river when someone stacks up a few river rocks and makes a statue. Still in awe at how many, probably hundreds of, stacks were all over a very large area of rolling hills.
As we walked along we came to a spot that had a bunch of rocks laying in a circle that had not yet been stacked up. We walked around and all the way to the end of the trail. There was only 1 circle of rocks and hundreds of stacks. I knew what the circle of rocks was for. We went back and I made my own miniature stone megalithic. As I built it I could hear them gathered around but never saw them again.
Oh, the night before we went to the gift shop we conceived our firstborn son after a year or so of fertility issues. That's my story about the Menehune." DC
NOTE: Menehune are a mythological race of dwarf people in Hawaiian tradition who are said to live in the deep forests and hidden valleys of the Hawaiian Islands, hidden and far away from human settlements. They are described as superb craftspeople. They built temples, fishponds, roads, canoes, and houses. You can find more here. Lon
