Well no, actually; I would've remembered that conversation. (Unless I was drinking Zombies!) I wonder which house that was you visited however; there are still weird little remnants of tiki culture there...well, just one, officially...there's a house on the corner of...Holly Oak Drive and something street...anyway they have this 2-ended driveway that arcs in front of the house. And right in front is a mound of earth with some bushes and cactusy-looking plants. There is a rough-hewn lava tiki living under those plants!!!!! It's been there since the late 60's at least. This tiki would watch over the neighborhood.

It is hidden now but back when another family used to live at this house, they would occasionally freshen the paint on the eyes and mouth of this thing. We used to call the tiki "Pele" whenever we walked by it.

I would feel weird knocking on that door and bothering those people, but I just might work up the nerve at some point.
