Also including pic of some fungus or something that comes out any IDEAS???

I can't see anything in that picture, but it's probably mold/mildew that accumulates as the last of the water leaves the log. It's because it stays damp enough, long enough for the junk to thrive. It's probably happening in the deepest carved parts? Just take windex, bleach, or some toxic bacteria killing spray to get rid of it. In a couple months it will stop doing that. Try putting it in the sun, too. Also, be aware of this before you seal any future tikis of quality. That water will leech under the finish, get trapped between the finsh and log and mess it all up. Turn black, bubble up, discolor, etc. That's why I sand and finish stuff I carve a couple months later. I did have to learn that the hard way, though...
Nice table, btw.

I have that mold stuff in my shower too...
