There'll be more pics on the way, I'm sure!

Despite the quite unusual and thoroughly unseasonable rain and grey skies (and the fact that I am thoroughly exhausted), The Seattle Area Home Bar Tour was an absolute success in every other way. In fact, despite the weather, it's difficult to believe the attendees could've been in better spirits even if the weather had been sunny and dry. And though the home bar stops last year were exceptional in their own way, this year's stops certainly rivalled last year's. And to that effect, I would again like to thank all the home bar owners, particularly for going beyond the call of duty and exceeding everyone's expectations. Also thanks to The Mercury Four for putting on a stellar performance and allowing me to sit in with them on bongos. And a late mahalo for the donation of wonderful goodies from Lynette Wylie of Seattle's brilliant shop, Island Life, and to Holden Westland of Tiki Farm. And, of course, to all those who attended this year's Tour, a very big and warm mahalo to you all! Everyone was absolutely super! I've been to Tiki-related events in the past, but the attendees of the Seattle Area Home Bar Tour have been hands down and by far the friendliest and most agreeable of people.
