Well, what a week it has been...
Flounder dropped off his Kahona painting for me. I can't thank him enough. It's choice-I highly recommend picking one up if you have the means...
That would be enough for most any week, but here are the finds from various thrift stores, garage sales and flea markets to top it all off:

An amazing 31" x 43" original oil painting dated '44. My wife finds it a bit creepy, but it sure fills the wall...

An odd pair of Salt & Pepper shakers (does anybody know what these are?), two unmarked bug-eyed mugs, a Tiki Gardens brochure, 2 Mai Kai postcards and some Hawaiian First-Day-of-Issue stamps.

Also picked up this swell bamboo lamp. Seems to be vintage. Came with it's own flicker bulb that smells like incense when it's turned on...

Also found a Witco. It's 29 1/2" tall. Anybody know the model/style?

Also just received this etched plaque from an eBay auction a while back...

Whew.
I think I'll have to take it easy for the next few days...
