Congrats and thank you Kate! Now everybody can feel the excitement I felt when I set out on my expeditions in the LA Jungle in the 90s. It is funny: While for some folks their interest in Tiki seems to be ebbing off, other are just blossoming, and picking up the Tiki torch to bring Tiki culture discoveries to new heights! Imagine how this place must have looked with a dozen or so of those Tikis! Damn we gotta find the original owners and get some day one documentation! These are the same resin flower lamps of which one used to hang in the A-frame of the Kona Kai. And don't ANYONE even think of clipping some, that would be desecrating an active Tiki temple!
