Known as The Healer Stones of Kapaemāhū, these boulders honor four māhū healers who are said to have voyaged from the Tahitian Island of Raiatea more than 500 years ago and brought their curative powers and wisdom to the people of Hawaiʻi. Efforts to reclaim the pride and Indigenous legacy of what it means to be māhū and continue to practice traditions passed down from the healers—Kapaemāhū, Kahaloa, Kinohi, and Kapuni—has gained traction in recent years.

The U.S. Navy promoted airships in the early 20th century, and feline aviator Kiddo of airship America was supposed to bring luck on a 1910 transatlantic crossing. Instead, Kiddo became overly excited, prompting the engineer to make one of the first air-to-ground radio transmissions: "Roy, come and get this goddamn cat!" The crew later had to abandon America and Kiddo was renamed Trent in honor of the ship that rescued the crew.
