Summary

The death toll from the wildfires on Maui rose again, to 67, and officials say the fires are still not contained. CNN's Bill Weir is in Maui and saw the devastation today. And behind every house and storefront burned, there's a story. Iconic artist Ruby Mazur, best known for the first mouth and tongue ever created for the Rolling Stones, which was prominently featured on the "Tumbling Dice" record sleeve back in 1971, was about to open a new gallery on Front Street in Lahaina. 100 of his paintings were destroyed. He talks about his loss.
