Yes #4 has migrated west to SoCal away from our LoCal. I Sadly do miss him a lot since he was a big deal for me. To be back carving the BigBenz's again was great. we had some good times before he left. HE has gone to some fancy tiki Bar called the Big Woo. I'll have to go see him out thereone day and visit a few more too. Ric & Moki have #1 and Stentiki has #3. There will be a village of BigBenZarts out there some day soon.

Benz,

We had a nice Christmas gathering here over this past weekend and I have to tell you that your carving was a huge hit! These were NON-tikiphiles and most aren't hip to the Tiki lifestyle yet each and everyone of them could truly appreciate your fine craftsmanship. All were stunned at the beauty of it and knew how special the piece was!

I just thought you should know that your work knows no bounds and reaches across all tastes and decorating styles.

Thank you, Ben... again!

Happy Holidays!
