While on a house hunt in a funky part of Camarillo in Ventura County, I noticed a house with no less than 20 mexican fan palms that were about 5 stories high on a smallish house lot.

I scared the crap out of my wife (Just married 2 weeks ago) when I slammed on the brakes and squeeled, "TIKI". Being a good wife, she slapped me on the arm, as I reversed it, and snapped these photos.

Looks like in the backyard, there might be a tiki hut, but I'm gonna have to call in Bongofury for backup on this one.

Probably not the original owners there now, but by the looks of it, the tiki is aged a bit. Probably whoever planted the mexican fan palms 40 years ago carved it, or collected it.
