Today's Washington Post featured a lengthy article on tiki in their home section. It focuses on a family who has incorporated tiki decor into their second home, located on Chesapeake Bay.

It provides a good view of how 'tiki awareness' is moving to mainstream media America.

Personally, I think they have the right idea - they just have to move decor-wise more towards tiki and further away from Martha Stewart.

In a poor editing decision, the Post chose not to print any pictures of the tiki bar, choosing instead to print a picture (in the hardcopy paper edition) of the disco ball in the girl's bedroom.
