My inspiration was a multi thing, seeing my dad's photos from WW2 while stationed in hawaii and there abouts, plus I spent a fair amount of time on Anna Maria island florida when I was younger and worked in the gulf as a diver and basic trade hand for a company there and I couldnt get that awesome sand out of my blood and the sound of the waves crashing on the shore. I love laid back, easy going music and always like to draw attention also , so kabam the Lava lounge was born. I was trying to complete my bar so my dad and I could sit, listen to music and have a cold one but as life goes he never lived to see it done and lung cancer took him from us. Its been two years now and I wish he could see it, I wouldnt be able to get him from our yard!!LOL.

Miss ya dad, free beer tomorrow at the lave lounge wish you were here....

I'm so sorry about your father. Its a shame that he didnt get a chance to enjoy it with you. Still you were making the bar for your dad and that such a beautiful tetimonial to love. He inspired you so is there in spirit. I sure your dad would be proud and honored. Cheers to you both.
