My biggest regret and/or complaint about TO9 is that I did not get a chance to thank Otto and Baby Doe in person for a great experience at the event and at my book signing before leaving. In such an atmosphere, it's almost impossible to "Lounge around" for a laid back, "island time," talk story session. Also thanks again Thor and Nick Camara - these guys are pure Aloha! I have been lost in tiki and surfing since High School, and that was 42 years ago. You know, the same jam-up we are seeing in Tiki, occurred in surfing. It went from mellow and laid back in 1960 to zoooed out by 1969! Anyway, to us old school guys, Tiki, Surfing, and the Beach, are a trinity that really cannot be separated. Speaking of beach, maybe Tiki Oasis could take over one of those beach resort hotels - plenty of room on the sand...? One last thing, check out my book, it has lots of Tiki culture. bedtimestoriesforsurfers.com. Mahalo to all the new friends Teresa and I have made at the Oasis over the last three years.
