Do me a favor Mrs B and leave my posts alone. It seems that nothing I do agrees with you or Ben and you often have something to say about it. I am simply bringing the shirts. If somebody sees this post and asks me about them thats great. Otherwise no one will see them and I will take them home. There is not any vendor space left anyway and realistically, I dont think that 25 shirts is enough to rent a booth anyway.

I purchased the shirts from a local retailer because he did not want to cart them out to Palm Springs to the Oasis event. I thought that my fellow TCers would be looking for shirts exactly like these. I am trying to be a good guy and make them available. I did not scour thrift stores for these at $1 apiece. I paid a few hundred dollars for shirts I dont need so that others might buy one. The price I am selling them for is barely more than I paid for them.

I have also spent several hours of my time putting together a collage board to donate to the caliente tropics when the event is finished. I have invested more than $120 in supplies (photo paper, inkjet cartridges, expensive craft glue, paint). I will spend a good portion of my time at the event collecting photos of my esteemed Tiki Central members and assembing them on the collage.

Photo Board

I spend my time doing it because I like the people in this group. I am just giving that money and time away for nothing because I feel that it is worthwhile.

Just for once go rain on someone elses parade.

Good grief!!
