I sure hope it's worth it.

Well, you tell us: Is it worth it to be Canadian?

I run a mail order department, and it's often less expensive to ship packages to the US than it is within Canada. I estimate the cost to ship a magazine to me is less than $3US, unless of course it's sent by UPS, Air or packed in a box with styrofoam to boot. I'm not here to question why I'm being charged so much more, I'm sure they have their reasons.

I love tiki, so however I have to get my hands on it, I will. There are some things out if my reach, but there are many other people in the same situation. We often have to pay double or more for what we love. C'est la vie! I wouldn't trade my home for anything.

Maybe the question should be: Do you take tiki for granted? Probably not. You probably get as much enjoyment out of your purchases, finds, and events as possible. Just like me!

I'm happy where I am, with my house, my family and my climate. Being able to visit tiki-rich areas make it even more special. I'll be taking a road trip down to Portland in June, and I can hardly wait! Up here tiki is my dirty little secret that no one else understands. Just the way I like it. Especially when I can come here to chat with tiki lovers from around the globe!
