You guys put so much love and effort not just into your annual event, but also into making Portland a tiki-friendly town year-round, and the fruits of your labors are much appreciated. The Alibi is looking gorgeous, and it was fun to hear the stories from the ongoing restoration effort. So many new details to see every time I go in there -- I'm already looking forward to seeing it again, and also to seeing Portland's newest tiki bar, Thatch, once it opens... Robertiki's plans sound very promising. It was great fun getting to meet new folks like Tigerlily, Robertiki and the Rum Demons -- my only regret (which I seem to have after every event) is that I didn't take the time to introduce myself to more people. Even I get shy sometimes. :blush: I've got to get better about that. And, of course, it was fantastic to spend a whole bunch of time with old friends I haven't seen in a while, like Tiki Wahine, tikibars, Melintur, TikiMama, Kim, Tikitronic, Monkeyman, dogbytes, puamana, Selector Lopaka, seamus & Jauna, Travellin' Tiki, Jungle Trader & Cheryl, Pepe le Tiki... -- I'm so pleased to hear that darned near everybody is going to be at Hukilau, so I'm going to get even more time with everybody soon. Like an idiot, I brought my camera but forgot my memory card, but Hanford has a few pictures of the Alibi -- don't think he has any of people, I'm afraid. He's not quite as snap-happy as I am.
