It almost looks like a place out of a David Lynch movie. The carved tiki heads almost look decomposed. I agree with Bigbrotiki as this being Roadside art, and many times I find myself not taking pictures of sights and buildings and etc. thinking it is not tiki enough or I think I will do it next time.. I pass by the same places all the time and then it is gone. For example the Aku Aku Motel on Ventura Blvd, in Woodland Hills. So many times I wanted to take pictures of the place to show what it looks like now. Last time I passed by a month ago all the tiki aspects were taken down and it is being reconstructed into a regular looking Motel. No more Aku Aku Motel, it is a shame.
