Many thanx for all the great comps from the great ohana!

Freddieballs: I'm in Folly Beach--about 2 hours south of Myrtle Beach. The marq canoe is sittting around, waiting to be hung still.

LLT, come on down--errr, over and then down. gotta seat at the bar saved for ya.

lookin' good on your end too, tikitrav.

Thanx, Tiki Diablo. this place could use a TD carve sitting in the corner.

Thanx, jpmd. It is a pretty good hideout--somehow she manages to find me down there every time, though :wink:

Sam G--old school rules! no 'new tiki' for me--unless it gets smuggled in somehow--it's happened before. (the 'gift bearers')

DejaVoo- I can't really give you an accurate figure but the majority of the cost was lumber, 2x's, OSB, etc. like for walls, bar frame, etc. which I'd have purchased anyway -tiki room or not. Harvested all my own bamboo, bought mismixed paints from Slowe's, garage sale, flea markt, resale store furnishings---there's so many ways to make it happen in a low budget manner.

Thanx, VRN--just say NO to white walls....and ceilings.....and light switch covers.....and doors....and--so on.

LLT, still waiting....

Thanx Harro. I 'lost' a camera a few weeks ago but just got a new one and am still trying to find the sweet-shot buttons-but I do have a trio of new pics for you coming up.

BIG thanks to Swanky and his 'fee-yon-say' for making the drive down the mountain for a visit last weekend and hooking me up with this Xtra sweet shell lamp crafted in a joint effort by the Swanky family. Fine job, I must say and it looks awesome hanging in the Jungalero Room--I may have to move it to a more prominent spot eventually. The thing is BIG, too. If you ask reeeal nice, the Swankys may be able to hook you up too....? Enjoyed you guys company again and thanks for introducing me to TikiBob---super cool guy with an awesome vintage car collection. Come see us!!!

This pic may be a little brighter than the room is in reality. Notice the absolutely kick-a$$ shell lamp from Swanky in the top left corner.

Practically the same shot as above--trying to get a real sense of the lighting-maybe closer--maybe too dark-

Another view of the shell lamp.

Thanks fer peepin'
