Don't let my wife hear that! LOL!

Where are you located?

Dock? Bar? (you had me at bar)

Mahalo!

We live on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, in the U.S.A. We live on a tidal creek that opens up into the Chesapeke bay. There is a boat dock out back (no boat yet though) and our screened in porch is our tiki bar from April-November. We moved this last summer.
For years we were living at about the poverty level in Buffalo NY, so all we had in our little corner bar were a few chinese made mugs, plastic resin coconuts, Les Baxter lps, and other assorted thrift store bric a brac* that wouldn't strictly belong in a 100% tiki bar. It was all second hand store stuff. Our bar itself was made out of a scavanged microwave counter and hula girl costume skirts bought one year after Halloween.
We did have some really good times there.
For years I lurked on TC.
We're doing better now though, we recently got what pops would call "real" jobs. I'll post some pics over in the bar thread once we open up for this season.
