Thanks for the offer. i will be staying with a really close friend of mine who is in the process of moving. Because she has two places to live right now, I won't have to worry about crowding her, her kitten or the SPIDERS !! (inside joke). Not sure what we are doing Sunday AM--hmm... |

It was another great time. Glad BK's carving is here in Knoxville where I can visit it regularly! I want a few for myself... It was great to see a bunch of the ohana. Mr. Smiley and Duke of course, the crew from Metarie, LA! It's so nice to get to talk shop with everyone. I made a great find at the antique store on the way home which makes it extra yummy. The new hula dancer with Dames Aflame was JUST KILLER! I gotta have her for my next big party here if possible. Guys, be at Torch Nights next month. With "I Belli di Waikiki" in da lanai, it's gonna be da best! I am urging everyone to make it their Hukilau kick off and for those who can't make Hukilau, you have to try to make this! |

What a trip and what a place! Trader Vic's Atlanta really is a stand-out among the all the fine Traders' outposts. 100% original and lovingly cared for, it's a majestic port for anyone who really appreciates an old school Tiki temple. It was great to see folks I'd met before and make more new friends. I really miss the Southern hospitality– it's been a while since I've spent time in the heat and kudzu. Thanks to Kiliki for the invite and for putting together such a vibrant event, the Atlanta crowd has really found the place to get their Tiki fix every month. David P. was very generous as well, thanks! It's so nice to see people with a passion for Tiki making sure great things happen– keep preachin' the good word. I was very impressed with Swanky's tune spinnin' and Tongo Hiti's crowd dazzling. The Dames a-Flame were certainly easy on the eyes as well– especially the hula dancer! I had fun hanging out with Basement Kahuna, seeing his carvings in person, and discovering that we had a lot of mutual friends from back in my Georgia days. It was a treat to meet TNTiki and be there as the lucky stiff loaded up that great big BK carving. I even came home with a cool Moai that Mrsmiley was kind enough to let me get– even after he was the first to spot it, thanks. Thanks also to the folks who came out to say hi and to talk Tiki, it was really great to share some stories and laughs with everyone. Here are some shots of Trader Vic's Atlanta: Aloha! |

I'm so glad you Smoky Mountain folks finally got a chance to meet TNTiki! He & his wahine are so incredibly nice. I hope business will take me to Knoxville sooner rather than later. |
