I bet a lot of people here have similar feelings of wishing we'd BEEN there when we'd been there, if you know what I mean. Or SEEN it when we saw it. Not just with locations in Waikiki, but other places too, including Vegas. On 2010-11-14 16:18, JOHN-O wrote: I will add this one image of a Edward "Mick" Brownlee carved Tiki that I really liked. This was something I would have walked by a million times and never really thought about. Now, I think about all of the change that one Tiki has been witness to for almost half a century. That one has witnessed a lot, and his unfortunate brother on the back side looks like he might've seen even more on the rougher side of the tracks, giving him a more bitter grimace... -Randy (ps - I like that Canlis ad!)
