Wow....it has been awhile since I have had something to post in here. Before I get to it, lots of new names and still so much quality projects. A lot has changed here on this end to say the least. My wife and I have bought our first home which happens to be our dream MCM home here in Atlanta for over a year and loving every moment. So many projects going on and now finally tiki is one of them. We have just started on our third version of our beloved Wiki Wiki Room. Now, finally having a place of our own, no limits and the room will finally be what we have always wanted plus in the right context, the basement rumpus room in our Atomic Ranch...As we begin to make real progress, we'll post pictures. As of now, all demo work is done and framing for the bar is about to take place. You can get all the details on our blog...Home Sweet Split Level.

Anyway, let's get to the latest project. In the middle of our neighborhood, we have a great little swim and tennis club that is run by the neighborhood:Northcrest Swim and Tennis Club. My wife and I help out along with a few other fellow Northcresters and at our annual meeting this year, we all wanted to do something for a neighbor that goes above and beyond in helping out. At the club, we have a small little "tiki hut" (which needs some help) and we decided to name the tiki hut after him. So, I glued up some cedar boards, sharpened up the chisels, warmed up the blow torch, and came up with the following sign to hang in his honor!

I was a little rusty, but it came out pretty nice I think. Everyone loved it and as a result, when we open up the pool next season, I going to help rehab the pool's tiki hut! Should be a fun project.
