Locals like to say Bonsall isn't dull... it's just so close to exciting Fallbrook (sorry, inside joke)

There is a cottage industry for carved tiki poles in northern San Diego county. The other day, I saw a pickup carrying no less than 6 of them.

There are a lot of anonymous sellers of these tikis in the area. There are at least 3 retailers in Oceanside, there is a guy who sells them at the swap meet at the corner of Encinitas Blvd & PCH, and there is a guy who is always selling tiki poles on Craigslist. And this doesn't even count the guys selling Tikis at Kobeys Swap Meet farther south. These guys may or may not be affiliated. And lets not forget Bosko, who is located in Escondido.

Curiously, I don't recall anybody selling tikis at either the Oceanside or Escondido swap meets.

BTW, I was roadtripping through Wickenburg, Arizona, and saw somebody selling tiki poles!!!
