"They scattered before my friend returned, and I doubt they ever left the island."
I sense you're now embarrassed about that statement so I'll let it go.
Yes, I remember 2006, what a crazy time. I bought some land around then and I've been waiting for a repeat boom ever since.
The rising prices in Honolulu and now Kona give hope! Also there are, if I remember correctly, something like 1 million people retiring every year on the mainland now and for the next 20 years and some of them want to give Hawaii a try. I really wonder if Puna will ever reach the normal Hawaii style prices. When I tell people you can still buy an acre of land in HPP for 20K they are amazed.
