Hey Hut! Thanks bro! I havent had the time to get my video into snippets and post them, so I really appreciate the pictures. (The Tropics was a nice touch too!)

There are a very few folks like us here in Dayton...but I'm definately up for a rumtainted drink!

Check out Ahu's Fraternal Order of Moai site - I have been amaized to find some tikifolks, like ourselves, in the local areas.

Shoot me a PM or e-mail and we'll sit down for a drink.

UPDATE: Informatively, if any of you are interested...a friend of mine called me last Sunday about some 'new items' that had arrived at a large antique store. I went to check em out and low and behold, I saw these two 9 foot tiki poles that reached the ceiling.
They claimed to be from the Kon Tiki Theater and the guy is asking like $495 a piece.
They can best be described as dark wood, with carved African looking tikis...the ones near the bottom of the pole were actually kinda aynotomicly correct, if you know what I mean.
They appeared to be in good shape with exception to some scuffs that looked recent and probably made by the metal straps that held them into the wall.

If anyone is interested, I'd rather one of US get them than someone else. I simply don't have the money or the room for a huge carving like that. But if YOU are, then drop me a line and I'll point you in the right direction.

Later!
