I think I just grew up with it...my family is largely from Hawaii, and I saw a lot of carvings and things when I visited. And growing up on a hillside overlooking "The Tikis" also helped...I never went inside the place, but we would hear the drums at night every weekend, and if you looked down the hill, way at the bottom you could see little nuances of flames from their wild celebrations. It was always just there, and for many years was not an active interest, but about three, four years ago, it sort of gelled into a very active interest.
