To get there, take the Campus Drive loop counter-clockwise away from Palm Drive, after a ways you'll come to Santa Theresa, where you'll turn left. Follow Santa Theresa until you get to Lomita, and it's on your right. Great link, Chongolio! I think this just goes to show that tiki can lurk in the most unexpected places. This is practically right in our own backyard, and so far, it looks like no tikiphiles were aware of its existence, even hardcore tikiphiles who have lived here for ages. It being in a region that's thick with Polynesian Pop is a fluke -- it could just as easily have been an installation on the campus of some university in a PolyPop-desolate area. Who knows what other caches of hidden tikis are lurking out there, waiting to be discovered?
