Everyone, from buzzy, Ben, tiki diablo, tiki ray, maddogmike, little lost tiki, dawn, benzarts vintage poles, lamps by skip and kahaka, chairs from Art at don's,Victor, Kelly who built the lake and have done so much, Jim and JP who did the stage lighting, big al who did all the curtains and pillows in the trailer, just so many people have helped and contributed..i am sure i have missed someone, they are all a part of this. Sven, On another note, Bob from OC sent me this message on carvers at lake loreen, your pictures and the crud tikis look like the one buzzy posted photos of a couple of weeks ago. Heres the email... Kia Ora Amy: I'm not familiar with this particular tiki. During the days we supplied Lake Loreen we had 6 tiki carvers, one being a Fire Capt in Los Angeles who did "crude" tikis. We gave Bruce Sawli permission to carve for Gus on his own. This tiki might have been carved by Bruce using a Date Palm or a California Fan Palm. It looks to be in fair shape for it's possible age. Best of Tiki to you Amy, Bob Bob did say in another email that Bruce passed away. [ Edited by: Queen Kamehameha 2011-09-02 22:53 ]
