I finally got all of my Coontiki pictures uploaded and adjusted and I wanted to share some of them. My plan was to fill all 3 of my discs with shots of the beginning of the activities because I knew that on Saturday Silverline was going to arrive like the cavalry loaded with the big guns and he would take the really good pictures. I just hoped to capture some of the early moments with the camera I had.
I was fortunate enough to be able to arrive a day early and enjoy some quiet time with the Legends before most of the attendees checked in. So here are a few of the things you may have missed or just imagined........
Ben talking to Swanky's awesome New Guinea figure in the Hapa Haole Hideaway.
Al reclines upon the throne of contemplation.
More of the tiki decor in the fabulous Hideaway.
We all wait in anticipation of seeing what BK has wrapped up
in the blanket!!
Friday morning at the cabin. BK with his amazing Tangaroa.
Benzart admires Basement Kahuna's work up close.
The instructors discuss the variety of tools BK has brought. (I try to take a picture while I pinch myself because I can't believe I am really here).
This is TNTIKI who now owns the BK tang. He lives in Tenn. and although he wasn't an official student attendee, he drove to visit us every day. He's a great guy. I really enjoyed talking with him and he has a great laugh too. That is Jungle Jim (left) and TikiLee's (right).
Well, that's all for today but I have some more from the carvers stores and wood lot. More fun to come!!! 8FT
